A Sunday ride to a swimming class that was not actually scheduled, to a pop-up market where the person selling the thing I went for hadn’t arrived yet, and to Costco where at least we got to eat a hot dog. It was a chilly ride.

2025 Bike Ride 62

Saturday flamenco trip with a stop at a Par Amour patisserie-café for a delicious cookie, then a music lesson. Lastly, we stopped at Messorem for lunch and the first round of smoothie fight 2026. I rode on a few new streets over near Monk.

This was the first ride with my new winter studded tires. It was another cool day with damp paths without ice most places, so good for running in the tires.

2025 Bike Ride 60

Another transit strike day with “rush hour” service. We had a show to see at L’Illusion on St-Denis called “Les petites géométries”. It was a great show and Fernanda loved it. However, it was at 3pm, so transit couldn’t get us there in time but could take us home. I rode with Fernanda on my boke up there. Thankfully, she was able to take the metro home with Doris because it had really started to snow while we were in the show and the ride home was slippery. It took me nearly as long to get down from the Plateau alone as it had to ride up there with a child on my bike.

Total trip distance: 14.87 km

2025 Bike Ride 59

Another transit strike Saturday, but with “rush hour” service. However, we didn’t use transit because it only ever was available at one end of our trip. First up was flamenco class, then Costco, and finally dinner at Leméac. It was a cool day for riding, but mostly sunny. Dinner was really delicious and with good company.

I rode on a couple new streets up near Laurier on the way back to avoid construction on Parc.
