Tourist pace: Ride to Niagara Falls and take the GO train back

RIDE 100 KM TO CELEBRATE THANKSGIVING. We will ride from Burlington GO station to Niagara Falls and have Turkey Dinner at Grand Central Bar and Grill (https://grandcentralbarandgrill.ca) before taking the 4:05 GO train home. We will use Europe bike travel expert Terry Walsh's route as his route has some holiday mood/feeling which is good for this occasion. This route is just like travelling in Europe on a bike tour where you cross the river Rhine on a ferry under sunset except we are crossing Welland Canal on a pontoon boat but I think the Sun is the same. A great way to enjoy Thanksgiving!

Date: Saturday October 7th.
Start: Burlington GO station south parking lot, 2101 Fairview St, Burlington.
