Simcoe Circle Trip
September 27 – 29, 2014
This trip is organized and run on TBN’s behalf by Cycle Canada, a Canadian bike touring company with an excellent reputation that has been a long-time supporter of TBN. A number of members have participated in their Victoria Day century ride, trans-Canada tour, Toronto to Montreal tour or others.
The trip begins at Bradford GO station, 9 a.m. Saturday September 27, and ends there at 6 p.m. Monday September 29. It circles Lake Simcoe in a clockwise direction, with average daily distances of 99k. – longest day 113 k. Included in the fee are 2 nights’ accommodation in motels (double occupancy), two breakfasts, dinner on the night of September 28, snacks during the 3 days of riding, route maps, van support, and luggage transfer.
The trip fee is $375 (plus HST). Registration is with Cycle Canada; you will be asked to give your TBN membership number. (To find this, log in and choose “View Profile” at the top right-hand corner of the TBN website main page; your “User Id.” is your membership number.) There is a maximum of 16 spaces on the tour.
