The plan:
The execution:
Why you going looking for the Niagara Escarpment: it’s the only place where you’re not riding on the crown of your tire all the time in Southern Ontario.
A bit windy, but otherwise perfect weather. 24°C in Elora down to 18°C on Georgian Bay in Thornbury; comfortable without ever being sweaty. The 360° shots are from a Ricoh Theta 360° Camera, the rest are taken from my Samsung S5 smartphone. Videos are at the bottom.

A thumbs up from Max, he likes the twisties. |

A pheasant and baby! But you can’t see it due to poor resolution and lens distortion. The Theta is an interesting idea, but even with giant, unwieldy files, it still has poor image quality. |

Big sky on the never ending farm field ride home. |

Another Tiger double take. There is another! |
