Don't want to drive? Getting here is easy. Bike Train (VIA Rail) means you can put your bike on board VIA's baggage car. The daily run from Toronto to Montreal will take you along Lake Ontario's shoreline. Once you arrive in Cobourg, about an hour from Toronto, the station master will remove your bike from the baggage car, right onto the platform in front of you. You can take a short cycle down George Street to join up with the Greenbelt Route, Waterfront Trail, Rice Lake Ramble or Shelter Valley cycling loops - all signed for your convenience.
Howard Pulver at Bike On Tours will also take care of details for you. Luggage transfer and pick up service is all part of what he can pull together for your cycling trip. You can also visit Ontario By Bike, of which Northumberland County is a founding member. Here, you can be connected to certified bicycle-friendly accommodations, places to eat, attractions and businesses in Ontario.
