Wednesday Wheelie – Boston Church to Rockwood

  • 04 Nov 2015
  • 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM
  • Boston Presbyterian Church (3 Line & 5 Side Rd), north of Milton


This is a 63 or 80 km ride from Boston, Ont. north through picturesque Glen Eden (and also Limehouse and its old lime kilns on the long route) to Rockwood for lunch at the Eramosa Cafe. The Eramosa Cafe features great sandwiches and wonderful butter tarts (reviews). Meet for a 10 am departure at the Boston Presbyterian Church.  Map

To get to Boston, Ont. take Hwy 401 to Milton and exit at Hwy 25 (Exit 320). Drive north on Hwy 25 for 2 km, turn right on 5 Side Road and go 1.3 km, turn left on Third Line (other sign is Boston Church Rd) and go 0.8 km. The historic church is on the right. (For a pre-ride pit stop, there is a Tim Hortons on the right just past the first traffic light after you get onto Hwy 25).  Driving directions

The owner of the Eramosa Cafe has recently informed us that he will not be happy if we arrive en mass over the lunch hour and effectively squeeze out his regular cuctomers. If this seems a possible outcome when you arrive, as alternatives we suggest the Heaven on Seven Bistro just along the street to the east, or Saunders Bakery just along the street to the west and around the corner. Both alternatives have very positive reviews on TripAdvisor.
