Sunday August 1st ride: Prince Edward County Wine Tour!
Wine! Food! Ice Cream! This is a fabulous wine tour for those who like visit the wineries of Prince Edward County by bicycle! Wayne will take us along a route that passes by at least 20 wineries (all on the map). We can decide as we go which ones to venture into. We’ll have a planned stop in Wellington at the halfway point to get a bite to eat if people wish. For something a little extra, there’s an optional stop at the Lavender farm early on in the tour. Actually, ALL the stops are optional—you could just blast past ’em all, but what would be the point? The plan is to ride together in a group, but if numbers permit, we may break into more than one. Take note that it’s an 11:00 start. Bring a little $$ for optionals that might include wine tastings, food, or ice cream!
