Starting in the Elmwood village of Buffalo this route crosses the Peace Bridge (bring your passport!) and follows the Niagara River north towards the falls until once again crossing the river back into the US via the Rainbow Bridge. At this point we continue to follow the Niagara River until we finally reach its termination in Lake Ontario. Follow the lake east towards wine country for a bit before we drop south and ride through the wide open spaces of the northern north towns and then reach the more crowded north towns and finally once again the Niagara River into Buffalo
