Sunday started off with some miserable weather. Cool and damp for most of the day and wearing layers was the key to staying comfortable.
The first leg of the trip started at 11am and consisted of a straight run across the 401 into Kingston where I waited to catch the ferry across to Wolfe Island and after making the short 11km run across the island I had to wait again for the second ferry to the US. Total time wasted from Kingston to the US was a whopping 3.5hrs (mostly spent waiting for ferries).
Once across the border I hooked up with route 3 to route 104 then westward along the south shore of Lake Ontario. Oswago was the halfway point and time to stop for dinner. Sheppards Pie and a cold beer hit the spot nicely after which I continued well after dark finally stopping for the night in a small town just east of Rochester.
I wasn’t expecting such open arms at the motel that I checked into. Not only were they ready and willing to take in the “noisy motorcycle”, they even offered extra towels to wipe the bugs and road grim off the bike.
Total distance for the day…512km.
