I was reading an article about this trip in a paper a couple of weeks ago. It looks interesting as I've never done any touring. The trip is around 167 klicks. If I was to do it next spring I'd be thinking of taking my time & taking 3 days of around 55 klicks which is about the longest trip I've taken road riding.

Niagara on the Lake to Welland

Welland to Ft. Erie

Ft. Erie to Niagara on the Lake

I'd probably stay @ B & Bs and arrange to leave my vehicle in NOTL. Has anyone ridden this route or the Niagara region? Also, are there any B & Bs that you'd recommend?

Hey Rev:
The area is fantastic with loads of great climbs, fast downhills, orchards, vineyards,and tons of history and things to see. The Niagara Parkway is amazing, (just rode it last Sunday November 20 with my wife on the tandem). Lots of B&B's and little side trips you don't want to miss. Towns like Port Colborne, Port Dalhousie and Jordan are a must.
I live in Vineland and I can ride loops to any of these in a nice day ride. If you are married you have to bring your wife to NOTL she will love it and it will COST you!!!
How far are you coming from? When are you coming? and what type of bike do you intend to ride?
If I have the time available I would ride with you on some of the loops and show you the Cool stuff.

This is my Mother-in-law's B & B.

Enjoy the riding

I was in NOTL 2 years ago. We stayed at "The Doctor's House." Very, very nice B&B. Friendly folks.

In this article http://www.waterfronttrail.org/trail-itin-GNCRarticle.html and this webpage http://www.regional.niagara.on.ca/exploring/wcpt/default.aspx it would appear portions of the Circle Trail are not complete.

Did anyone ride the loop this year? If yes, where are the incomplete sections & what should a rider expect?

Thanks

I love this area. Really gorgeous. I'm going riding in Vineland / Jordan tommrow actually.
