There are so many of these peninsulas, that you will have to be selective. Going out to the point on a peninsula, and then returning, all the way back again, can get to be frustrating. Most visitors choose among the few loop options available on the island, and perhaps a couple of peninsula visits. These points of land see far fewer bicyclists, and fully decked out bikers are an oddity. These villages have also more a traditional feel and look than those with more pass through traffic.
Coastal villages are small.
Because of a decline of fishing, and the trend, as everywhere, for many to leave for the cities, you must find out which villages have food available, and which do not. Moving at 20 kilometers an hour on a big island, you do not have the luxury of waiting until you are hungry. In addition, prepare to accept what is available. Being at the far edge of the continent, by the time produce reaches the tiny fishing towns, it has been a few days since the produce has seen the ground or tree where it came from. There are five main regions to Newfoundland.
