First, everything is metric in Canada, right? Would you recommend switching my computer to kilometers?

Second, on a more serious note, what are the best 2 hour rides you would recommend about 50 kms (see, already thinking in metric!). From looking at some maps, here are a couple rides under consideration: counterclockwise loop on trails to Niagara-on-the-Lake/St. Catherines/Welland Canal/Thorold Stone, and ride out and back along the Niagara River south of the falls. Anything else you would recommend? Unpaved trails are an option, and I will have a car, so a short drive is possible. The more specific recommendations, the better, since I know nothing about the area.
