Hi Folks

Are there any local riders here available for sharing their favourite rides in Prince Edward Island?

I'm looking for anything from 60km to 150km. Road shoulder is nice, but a quiet and nicely paved country road will do.

Thanks in advance
Michel

Hi,

I just vacationed in PEI last month, staying at Brackley Beach on the north shore. I had two great rides:
1) South to Charlottown on the #15. Fair asphalt, good shoulder and around 60km return.

2) Along the National Park bike path. Running east from Brackley Beach along the north shore for about 22km return - gorgeous ride with dunes on one side and open marsh on the other.

FWIW, we drove there via the bridge and exited via the ferry and I saw a load of great roads that screamed to be ridden. I believe there's a club in Summerside that has a website. You may want to check them out for more info.
