Sauble Falls to Kincardine - Ontario Bike Tour #2 - Day 6 of 10
This video summarizes Day 6 of my 10 day solo bicycle trip along the shores of Lake Simcoe and Lake Huron in Southern Ontario, Canada. All of the clips in the video were filmed on Wednesday July 25, 2018.
In this video I mentioned my 2014 bike tour of the Bruce Peninsula. Unfortunately I don't have videos from that trip, however I have a photo album on my website which describes it in pretty good detail:
Starting from Sauble Falls Provincial Park I rode west on Sauble Falls Rd which changes names to Lakeshore Blvd at Lake Huron and took me into Sauble Beach. Sauble Beach is the second longest freshwater beach in Canada. When I reached Shore Rd, I jogged over to 2nd Ave S and continued south following the shoreline. Eventually this road merges with County Rd 13 which is a busy road with a bike lane. This land is all owned by the Saugeen First Nation. Eventually I turned right onto Eckford Ave, Blanchfield Rd, and Shore Rd. I briefly rode west along South Rankin St and then crossed the Saugeen River on Albert St. This brought me into the community of Southampton which is part of the municipality known as Saugeen Shores. Just off the shore of South Hampton theres an Island called Chantry Island. I made a right when I got to High St and then turned left at Huron St. This street eventually changes names to Miramichi Bay Rd and North Shore Rd. There are also sections of this route where there is a nice shoreline multi-use trail which I used. Eventually I reached the harbour of Port Elgin, where I headed inland along Market St to Goderich St. I stopped for a quick breakfast/lunch at JC's Just Good Food and also visited the Port Elgin Farmer's Market. I continued riding south along Goderich St out of Port Elgin until I reached concession rd 4 where I headed west. I turned onto Lake Range Rd which took me past MacGregor Point Provincial Park. When I reached Concession Rd 8 I jogged west and continued SW on B&C Side Rd. I again jogged west at Bruce Rd 33 and continued on Tie Rd which took me past the Bruce Nuclear Generating Station. From there I followed Concession Rd 2, Albert Rd, Victoria St, Upper Lorne Beach Rd and Bruce County Road 23 (B Line) into the town of Kincardine. Within Kincardine I explored SW along Queen St to Queen's Lookout, then up Durham Market Street to Princes Street. Next I rode down to the lake along Harbour St past Walker House and the Kincardine Lighthouse and out onto the north pier.
Strava for Day 6:
The bike I used for this trip is a New York made Linear Recumbent Bike which I believe is from around 2004. I carried my gear in 2 Giant Waterproof Panniers, and mounted my tent and sleeping pad on the top of the rack.

Kincardine to Goderich - Ontario Bike Tour #2 - Day 7 of 10
This video summarizes Day 7 of my 10 day solo bicycle trip along the shores of Lake Simcoe and Lake Huron in Southern Ontario, Canada. All of the clips in the video were filmed on Thursday July 26, 2018.
From Kincardine I headed southwest along Huron Terrace, turned right onto Kincardine Ave and followed the shoreline on Goderich St. After crossing the border into Huron-Kinloss, the name of the road changes to Boiler Beach Rd. At Concession Rd 10 I jogged inland and followed Lake Range Dr which took me over the Pine River and through Lurgan Beach.I turned right when I got to Concession Rd 2 and headed South West away from the lake. I eventually turned right onto Sideroad 25, then left onto Amberley Road (County Rd 86). When I got turned right onto Kintain I had then left Bruce County and entered Huron County and the township of Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh. I stayed on this road until I reached Belfast Rd where I turned left. I made a right turn from there onto Kingsbridge Line which I followed until Highway 21 (the Bluewater Highway). After a short stretch on Hwy 21 I turned left onto Glen's Hill Rd, and then right onto Kerry's Line. When I reached Dungannon Rd it was in the process of being paved and I turned left onto it. I made a right onto Cransford Line which I rode until Nile Rd. I continued south on Loyal Line, then West on Gore Rd back to Highway 21. After a short stretch of Highway 21 I was at the entrance to Point Farms Provincial Park.
I selected a campsite within the Colborne Campground and went for a quick swim at the beach. I then got back on the road and headed to Goderich along Highway 21. I passed the Goderich Municipal Airport, a bridge for the G2G (Goderich to Guelph) trail and the Maitland River. At the top of the hill coming into Goderich I turned right onto Gloucester Terrace where I passed the Huron Historic Gaol (Jail). I then I approached the Courthouse Square from North Street. I also went and saw the Lighthouse on Cobourg Street, and down Harbor street to see the beach and Goderich Salt Mine. I ate dinner with family at Park House Restaurant.

UNBELIEVABLE BLUE WATERS in CANADA
Day 2 of our camping trip is on Wes' birthday! We were camping at Bruce Peninsula National Park in Ontario and did a beautiful hike to explore the area. We almost got stuck trying to get out of a cave and then were shocked to see such BLUE waters at the grotto. Even though it was so cold, we had to go swimming to top off another great day in Canada.

In 1794, Port Dover was settled by United Empire Loyalists on the north shore of Lake Erie. First known for its gristmill, the sleepy little town soon grew in population as its economy diversified - it once boasted the largest freshwater fishing fleet in the world.
Today, Port Dover is still a thriving municipality of 6,500 residents with local attractions that include: The Lighthouse Festival Theatre; Port Dover Harbour Museum; Port Dover Harbour Marina; numerous wineries; farmers markets and more.Increasingly, people are discovering Port Dover as a wonderful place to retire due to its rich history and active community.
In addition to commercial fishing, nearby Long Point Bay is a sport fisherman's paradise with its wide variety of fish species, most notable bass, perch, pike and pickerel.
The 59th Friday the 13th is May 2016 - don't miss it!
For more than a century, the north shore of Lake Erie has held both fascination and magnetism that has attracted cottagers and tourists alike. On warm summer days in Port Dover, you'll find the swimmers, sun-worshippers and people-watchers, all who flock to the beach for recreation and relaxation and to enjoy the tasty culinary offerings of the nearby restaurants and food booths. Port Dover is famous for its local dish - fresh caught Lake Erie yellow perch and fries, served by many food establishments.
Throughout the year the town hosts a number of events, starting New Years Day with a Polar Bear Swim at the beach; a perch derby in April; July 1st Celebration; Summer Festival in August; weekly concerts in Powell Park in the summer; Santa Claus arriving by fish tug; and whenever a month has a Friday the 13th, the town becomes the destination for motorcyclists, with the PD13 celebrations being front and center.
