Overview

About this tour

Explore Presqu’ile with a collection of road‑focused rides linked by short path sections. Expect a mix of quiet back roads and some busier stretches, plus the odd unpaved bit. There’s no fixed start or finish—join anywhere that works for you.

Best on an endurance road bike with 28–32 mm tires or a gravel bike. Bring lights and ride visibly for the busier segments. Surfaces can change and some data is missing, so be ready for variable pavement and occasional rough patches.

Good for steady training spins or a casual day out. If traffic ramps up, detour onto quieter side streets when you can. Pack water and snacks, and check the wind—it can stretch those open‑road sections.

Have a great ride, stay aware, and follow local traffic rules.
