I've only ridden the roads around there and it's gorgeous countryside... the Forks of the Credit park also has some nice trails. Did you happen to get off the trail and check out the Cheltenham badlands? They're a neat sight and on a bike you can ride by slowly and take it all in without disobeying the no-stopping signs on the road since they closed the area a couple years. Apparently it's gonna re-open next year though.
I was up riding around the province yesterday too, started here and went to Palmerston (they have a railway museum I didn't know about!), then up to Ayton and across to Dundalk. I went up and down the escarpment as I rode through Kilgorie, the Boyne Valley and past Mono cliffs... the gravel roads were challenging and very hilly, the garmin said the grade was 13% at one point. I rode back to Grand Valley and finished in Fergus as the lightening was looking bad and I called for a pickup. It open up shortly after that and there was a short deluge of rain.
