twobone Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Had a great blat yesterday. My neighbor, the lady doctor who runs triathalons (and has the buns of a 20 year old...but I digress) told me about a local road that is popular with the bicycle road riders. Wow...twisty, dives in and out of two wooded valleys, includes an old one track wooden bridge with a lip to get some air (or pretend to) and also a down hill 1/2 mile straight to rev the beens out of her. Good quality roads are hard to find where I live, its nice to find a little slice of heaven to escape to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birkin42 Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 So where was this road? Sounds like Limehouse. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobone Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 OK...so where is Limehouse? This was a combination or Ford Drive north of the 401 (9th line), turn left onto Lower baseline and then work your way west to walkers line on lower baseline and lower baseline W and regional road 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Croc Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Did you take any photos of the doctor's buns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobone Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 Birkin 42...great minds think alike. Limehouse is also known as regional road 22. Very nice road. I think I will string these two routes together next time I'm out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birkin42 Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Twobone, the roads you describe use to be better 20 years ago, but they straightened much of it out in the name of progress. Check out 15 Side Rd north of Burlington as well as Hockley Valley Rd north of Orangeville. Lots of nice roads up in cottage country as well if you make a day or weekend out of it.

DeanG Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 A good road is a good find. Last October I was disappointed driving the Oregon coast highway. It just wasn't the way I remembered it from 1980. Please post pictures of buns... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
