Shreddy in OTT

There's a corridor of green space that starts just a little northeast of the Carling Executive Park and runs north-south, or vice versa, between Carling and Byron. This segment covers a good portion of that.

I include it in an hour long loop I do some days after work. You can see that here, which will help identify where you can pick up the trail: https://veloviewer.com/routes/2836265595361473230

There are literally hundreds of Strava segments called the "missing link". This particular iteration is a half a kilometer of hydro road. It's basically hard packed grass tire tracks, and it breaks up the paved bike paths that abound in the area.

This section of the Greenbelt Trail starts at Prince of Wales at Black's Rapids, just south of Hunt Club. It heads due west across Merivale and ends at Woodroffe.

If you ride without rhythm you won't attract the worms

About a billion years ago a glacier dragged it's arse across the Mer Bleue area and dropped piles of sand along the way as it headed west. The result is that as you follow the Greenbelt Pathways from Ramsayville all the way to Woodroffe you get to ride through soft, sometimes sandy trails surrounded by tall pine trees. The pines seem to really dig this soil.
