Niagara-Toronto Trekkers Bike From Niagara Falls to Balls Falls


The Niagara Toronto Trekkers left the Niagara Falls Hostel in good time this morning after a breakfast combination of our food and the hostel breakfast items..

Austin and Jessie where assigned as points, to read the maps and get us to our days destination. .
The crew rolled out looking for as many Tim Hortons as they could possibly find.  A rule was set that we could stop at every 3rd location.   It didn't take but a mile or two to locate the first Tim Hortons.   6 donuts where purchased and downed.

We found an open bike store who sold us a few things we needed but were advised of a store just a 1/4 mile further that had everything we needed, even a guy who diagnosed Ryan's bike computer problem getting it working.

We headed for the grocery store buying lunch dinner and breakfast and then cycled to the Welland Canal Museum to have lunch on the side lawn.  Just as we finished lunch an ocean freighter moved in the lock and we ran over to see it.  A few of us then wandered through the museum and then we headed onward.


We found Tim Hortons number 6 and consumed another 6 donuts and small drinks of the Trekkers choices.  Once at the Balls Falls campground a camp fire was made to roast the hot dogs to each trekkers liking on wooden sticks.  Then we moved onto smores.  Bed followed as morning arrives soon after a day of biking.

Tomorrow we end our day at a water park.  I'm sure tomorrow will bring more laughter and possibly a baseball game with the tennis balls and a wooden stick bat.
