But with the exception of the Belt Line, there are no long-distance rail trails in Toronto so one must venture outside the city to access\u00a0them.\u00a0\u00a0(The <a href=\"http:\/\/railpath.ca\/\">West Toronto Railpath<\/a> and Leaside Spur trails are short, paved routes on former rail beds, but are not long-distance routes.)<\/p>\n<p>Rail trails are great\u00a0for long-distance recreational cycling: they are relatively flat and separated from motorized traffic, making it comfortable to go at one\u2019s own pace. However, most rail trails are surfaced with crushed stone dust\u00a0and are not particularly well\u00a0suited for road and racing bikes. Hybrid or mountain bikes are best.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/spacing.ca\/toronto\/2012\/09\/07\/cycling-day-trips-uxbridge-to-peterborough\/#comments\">In the comments to my previous article<\/a>, &#8220;tim&#8221; responded that the Lake Simcoe Conservation Authority was in the process of upgrading the trail within Durham Region. This explained the unexpected trail closure I encountered in Brock Township on that ride. I am quite happy to report that the trail is now in excellent condition. The photographs below show one of the bridges in\u00a0Uxbridge Township in August, 2012, before the upgrades, and\u00a0the same view\u00a0in June, 2014. The re-planked bridge is now level with the upgraded trail surface, and railings installed. Unfortunately, I found a car driving towards me just outside of Uxbridge; the driver was apologetic when I told her that this was a trail \u2013\u00a0she was simply unaware. Gates and signs were not yet installed at every road crossing.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8033\/7895384774_38594b685c_z.jpg\" alt=\"Bridge on Uxbridge-Lindsay trail in August 2012\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Bridge,\u00a0August, 2012<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2936\/14423034943_2f1f5da06e_z.jpg\" alt=\"Upgraded bridge\" width=\"640\" height=\"423\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Same bridge, June 2014<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Between Uxbridge and Lindsay, the ride was pleasant, but mostly uneventful, apart from a bear sighting at the trails&#8217; crossing of\u00a0one of the concession roads Brock Township near Blackwater. It was a young cub, which likely meant that the mother was close by; I kept my distance. I&#8217;ve seen deer, beavers, hawks, and many rabbits, chipmunks and squirrels (and countless cows in farms adjoining the rail trails) but was very surprised to see\u00a0this bear. The trail was in excellent condition all the way to Lindsay.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5033\/14216246729_36761a0f95_z.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"436\" \/><\/p>\n<p>However, leaving Lindsay towards Peterborough, I found the Kawartha Rail Trail to be in poor shape almost all the way east to Omemee (the trail&#8217;s condition is much better the rest of the way to Peterborough). The crush stone surface was neglected, leaving it soft and deep and unpleasant to ride on. I felt that had to leave my feet free from\u00a0the pedal clips in case my wheels got caught. As well, leaving\u00a0Lindsay to reach that portion of the trail is difficult as the construction of a new subdivision closed part of the original railway alignment.<\/p>\n<p>The scenic highlights between Lindsay and Peterborough are the trestle in Omemee over the Pigeon River and a high-level trestle further east, which I described in the original article.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3898\/14433240835_ccbeed22e1_z.jpg\" alt=\"Highway 36 bridge leaving Lindsay\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><br \/>\n<em>1960s-era\u00a0Highway 36 bridge passes over the poorly-maintained rail trail towards Omemee and Peterborough<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Peterborough, population 78,000, has one of\u00a0Ontario&#8217;s most interesting and vibrant downtowns with many heritage buildings lining the main streets. There are\u00a0many options for dinner, drinks, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chbooks.com\/catalogue\/trouble-brunch\">and yes, Sunday morning brunch<\/a>. It also seemed to me to be a good\u00a0city for cyclists.<\/p>\n<p>The next day, I explored that city, visiting well-known landmarks such as the Lift Lock. Peterborough\u00a0felt like a\u00a0nice city to bike, largely because of the city&#8217;s many trails along the Otonabee River, Trent-Severn Waterway, and\u00a0former rail corridors. Even on roads without cycling infrastructure,I found motorists to be\u00a0friendly and conscientious. \u00a0The <a title=\"Google maps cycling directions\" href=\"http:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/fqGWN\" target=\"_blank\">seven-kilometre ride\u00a0from\u00a0downtown to Trent University<\/a> can be done almost entirely off-road. Leaving Peterborough, there are\u00a0rail trails that extend to the east (to\u00a0Hastings, Campbellford, and even almost as far as Belleville), to Lakefield to the north and of course, west to Lindsay and Uxbridge.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike Lindsay, which lost all eight of its railway spokes radiating from the town between the 1930s and the 1990s, Peterborough still has some rail, though this is now reduced to infrequent Canadian Pacific freight trains serving the downtown Quaker Oats plant, a few other local industries and nepheline syenite mines near Havelock. Still,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shiningwatersrailway.com\/\">There&#8217;s a persistent dream<\/a>\u00a0of restoring passenger rail service from Peterborough to Toronto; VIA Rail service between Havelock and Toronto ceased in 1990.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3903\/14506797901_19bcc7b0c2_z.jpg\" alt=\"Foot\/cycle bridge next to CP Railway\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><br \/>\n<em>New pedestrian\/cycling bridge over Otonabee River next to Canadian Pacific Railway<\/em><\/p>\n<p>In town, the network of multi-use\u00a0paths are excellent, with good wayfinding signage and easy road crossings.
