making bikes slow down for cars for no reason just seems insane to me when I watch this video years later. For no good reason at all, they cant give up one more foot of space on the roads for bikes to get by during grid lock. It'd make the drivers jealous and feel there's a war on cars.
hit bikely dott com for permanent routes. I think I already gave a route for that that starts at Islington 401 to someone, great route, minimal major road usage. Check it out on bikely under 'math's routes'.
and gmap-pedometer dott cOM for quick distance finding.
You better be from nyc, tokyo or Mex city to call downtown Toronto a burb. Most american cities are way less dense - full of 8 lane high speed Co2 highways, not interesting cycling.
I cycle where bikes slide by cars in the spaces that city planners forgot to erect obstacles to cycling.
This is my commute. Do you commute on a team Kona on Moab slickrock? Didnt think so.
My daily joy is to insult gridlocked cars by passing them.
Great potential here for some Toronto-centric cycling vids. Is your leg healed enough for winter biking? Definitely some unique footage available from winter cycling... :)
I was biking before I was allowed full weight on it ;) (In controlled environments - mt plez cemetary - no cars). Just cant jog quite properly yet. Winter biking - put some nice treaded but thin 700x35c's on from Urbane, pretty sweet. Slice thru anything but ice for the most part. Much better than slick for snow. Yeah, I gotta find a better mounting system for the phone-cam...

Though fortunately today's planners want to install bike infrastructure but politics and funding is holding them back.
