10 Dudes joined Frank on this 52 km ride from his cottage on Crowe Lk near Marmora. Peterborough cyclists met at 8:30 in the Television Rd parking lot across from Burnham Mansion to carpool for the 45 minute drive to Marmora. We had another ideal day for cycling, cool temperatures (15 C), sun & a slight wind From the cottage we cycled into Marmora then out on Mary St to the huge Marmora Mine quarry. We returned to Marmora on Deloro Rd across Hgw 7 to Station Rd stopping at the lovely Riverside Pk. From Marmora we rode mainly uphill to the hamlet of Cordova Mines then Cty Rd 48 & belmont 2nd Line back to Hgw 7 stopping at Belmont Lk.Cycled on the CPR rail trail between the 2nd Line & Tiffen Rd. Headed north on Tiffen Rd across Hgw 7 to High Shore Rd & along the shore of Crowe Lk to the cottage for a BQ lunch. Thanks to Frank for leading this scenic ride thru the Marmora area countryside & hosting a delicious BQ lunch
