We rode 45 miles from Lockport to Brockport, all along the canal. Alas, there are no locks on this stretch of the canal, but lots of bridges, small towns, and views of two waterfalls. It was hot, muggy, and sunny; our motel had a pool, so I had a swim for the third day in a row.
Bakeries have been in short supply on this trip, so we’re we’re delighted to find one a short way off the canal at a perfect time for a morning coffee and treat break.
We saw these well packed bikes outside the bakery and quickly identified the riders inside. They have been riding across the country, having started in Washington State in June. When we remarked that their bike bags looked well worn, they told us that they had been used on their 2 1/2 year, 25,000 mile trip around the world!
We saw several of these rental houseboats with bikes on them. Bike and barge sounds like fun.

I keep seeing murals that look familiar, either because I saw them back in 2013 when I biked along the canal, or because they all look kind of alike.
