Itinerary:

So for the Toronto Outdoor Club's picnic on Sunday starting at 11:00 AM and I will be biking from my home in North York down to the Toronto Island Ferry Docks.

However, I'd thought it would be awesome if others wanted to ride down with me.

This event will start from Eglinton Station (SOUTH ENTRANCE, see below for directions) and will end outside the Toronto Island Ferry Terminal.

At the end, those who plan to stay for the picnic can come across to Centre Island with me and everyone else can their own way.

NOTE: To come on this event, you must wear a helmet at all times. On this event we will follow all traffic laws.

We'll follow these directions

  1. North to Broadway
  2. East across Broadway to the Don Valley Trail
  3. South to the Lakeshore
  4. West to the Ferry Terminal

We'll plan to ride at a pace of 18-20 km/h. 20km/h is the fastest legal speed in parks and we'll mainly be in parks.

Total distance will be about 20 KM/H
