Wed August 20/25 - Oshawa Trails ride

 We met at Peter Hamley's home for this 50 km ride, cycling on side streets to access The Harmony Creek Trail a beautiful city linear park that took us south to Hgw 401 which we crossed over to Farewell St for a ride south to Harbour Rd & west thru a new park to Simcoe St & south to Lakeview Park & the Waterfront Trail cycling west around Whitby Harbour to the Ontario Shores Mental Health complex where we started the return ride on the trail to Lakeview Pk. From there we cycled north on The Oshawa Creek Trail, another intercity green oasis, for lunch at Teddy's. From Teddy's we cycled on streets & thru parks back to Peter's home. It had rained overnight & was drizzling on the drive from Peterborough but fortunately we had no rain on the ride however it was quite windy forming interesting wave & cloud formations on the lake.
