This ride starts at the Masstown Market in Masstown, northwest of Truro off Highway 2.

The ride departs at 8AM.
We’ll head out toward Parrsboro on Route 2 along the Economy shoreline of the Bay of Fundy, past the highest measured tides in the world. It’s gently rolling countryside until the speedbump of Economy Mountain and a sweet descent into Five Islands; thereafter rolling terrain to Parrsboro. After a lunch stop there, we had north on a fairly gentle ride up the Halfway River Valley to Southampton, then a climb up to Wyndham Hill, where, if you look behind you, you’ll be able to see the mountains of Fundy National Park in New Brunswick in the distance. After a sweet descent down to Collingwood and another store stop, the route heads east through forested gently rolling terrain to the Wentworth Valley, with one final climb and descent over Folly Mountain back to Masstown.
