Cycling in Waterloo Region

[UrbanCanoe]

I've combined the routes proposed by Clasher and Canrard to create a more scenic route, yet surprisingly efficient at only 25.2 km. Sections of road at Fountain St bridge and the trail along the Speed River are incomplete on the map so the AI shows significant rerouting around these areas. However, both sections are open and passable (though not 100% certain the trail along the River is open with the 401 construction). I've mapped these sections separately and removed them from the original estimate to determine the final distance. I'd love to try this route some Saturday morning for no other purpose than the scenery especially through Rockway Gardens, Homer Watson Park along the Grand River, Riverside Park and trail along the Speed River, ending in the historic Hespeler downtown.
