    Ridge Road!

    Head into Stoney Creek, then just south is Ridge Road. Follow it to about Grimsby, then hook north and take King St to St Catharines. From there, take Lakeshore into Niagara Parkway, it's all straight forward.


    TADA!!!

    I am guessing that you are going from downtown. Do you have a gps or are you going to try and remember the route. Just asking cause you can take direct roads that will be easier to remember or you cqntake the more fun route but if you haver done it before you will need a gps.

    Lakeshore is going to make the trip a long one. I would suggest to take the QEW to Hamilton and then take the route mapped above from there (Ridge Rd)

    +1 .... and watch for deer around niagara.... there is lots of them. I would hope your not going solo, as if you go down or hit a deer.... you could go off road and not be found till its too late! .... have a nice ride!

    Hello,

    I did not end up going last night

    Instead I rode for several hours with another member through great roads in Mississauga, Toronto and way east of Toronto had a blast and it wasen't cold. I still want to go to Niagara if Sunday the weather looks good I'll probably head there , thanks for all the routes.
