So who here has done a ferry crossing on a bike? As I mentioned in the Iron Butt\random topic thread I wanted to take a day trip up to Canada and then take a ferry back across old Erie to Sandusky and then home. I discovered the ferry only runs to Sandusky through the end of September and won't run again til April. I want to get at least one long trip in on my first bike before it goes onto a new owner so I want to try and do it here in the next two weeks. So my question is; how are ferry crossings on a bike trip? Any big do's or don'ts? What sort of items do you recommend bringing other than the tool kit and some cash? Should I stuff my pants with pillows so my butt doesn't try and strangle me when I get home?
It's about only 4:30 minutes from my house to the dock on the Canadian side if I go by way of Detroit. Then 1:30 on the ferry to Pelee island, I have 2 hours to kill there sight seeing, then another 1:30 to Sandusky and an 1:40 home on the bike.
