FLAT COURSE

Tour de Wainfleet

It is a 39 km one loop relatively flat (42m elevation gain) course meant to simulate a longer A to B style road race course. From its start you will head south along the smooth Hwy #3 with its wide bike lane to Lakeshore Road where again smooth roads lead you west along the winding bends along Lake Erie. Route then heads NW along North Shore Drive going up and over the one lone hill on the course and then turns right on Canal Bank Road where a 15 Km straightaway drag strip to the finish point awaits. This course is fast and any break away or chase group wll not only need to work hard but also get organized quick!
