Day 4, Turkey Point to Port Colborne (Pleasant Beach campground).  We had a great breakfast at a crepe place in Port Dover, and checked out a local bike shop to see if someone could take a look at my rear wheel, which is a little noisy.  No mechanic was available, but we used their wifi anyway!  Love bike shops.  We had a very long day (for this trip, anyhow), of 90 miles.  Lunch was in Dunnville, at a great place called Flyers, with good food (Pesto Ravioli!), lots of water for our bottles, wifi and great conversation.

 

 

 

It was kind of a long slog to get there, against the wind, and we took a little bit of a shortcut and skipped some of the shoreline to get there.  Better than bonking...  Rode out of Dunneville on a pretty busy road with no shoulder, but drivers are all pretty nice and provide a wide berth when they pass.  Lots of actual lake shore today (unlike some others), though a lot of it did not smell very good.  I think it's the same thing that caused the water problem in Toledo, and the beaches we saw didn't look that nice either.  Had some very strong cross winds for awhile, and thought we were going to get caught in a storm, but that didn't happen until after we turned in later.  Dinner was in Port Colborne, which was the beginning of an awesome paved trail that goes all the way to the mouth of the Niagara river (which may be Lake Erie at that point, not sure).  We only took it about 10 km out of town and then turned South to get to our campground.  Very nice, but we were the only tenters (lots of seasonal residents in trailers).  At $13 Canadian each, it was a bargain even with the pay-as-you-go showers.  I blew a front spoke near the end of the day, but was able to ride to our destination without issue.  We fixed it once we got to camp, and it'll do just fine until I can have a pro tweak it up.  More worried about the rear bearing.  Storm came through big time but our tents held up, and our stuff was packed, so all was dry this morning.  We took a look at the beach there, and stuck our feet in this morning, and it's the nicest one we have seen yet.  And the water is quite warm.  Off to Niagara Falls!
