Biking Challenges

The Locks Endeavour

Starting on June 1st, 2024 RTA is offering a new activity called the Locks Endeavour. It consists of hiking, biking or paddling the Rideau Canal Locks. You can combine any of these activities, as long as you visit all the locks from 1 to 49. A new badge will be awarded upon completion.

I've decided to tackle this challenge on bike.

My original plan was to bike the entire thing in 2 days. All went well the first day, and camped at the lock at night. But my bike got a flat (and I didn't have a repair kit - lesson learned), so had to pull the plug on day 2 and call for a pick up. I don't have much left to go, so look forward to a nice warm Spring day to finish it off... and get another patch!
