Hundreds of cyclists pitted their skill and stamina against the rolling hills of the Niagara Escarpment in the Collingwood area this weekend. Judging by the whooping I heard as the racers descended the hills of County Rd. 91, they enjoyed the vistas and challenges alike.
Norwegian tall ship Sorlandet arrived in Collingwood this morning. The oldest full rigged ship in the world still in operation, she is currently serving as a floating classroom. After picking up a local student, the ship will sail through the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence Seaway and then across the Atlantic Ocean. (2013-08-21.)
