2023 Bike Ride 33

Our first ride in a few weeks after being away on vacation. We went along the aquaduct canal to Lachine and then continued along the water to a playground in Dorval. We briefly considered continuing to Pointe-Claire village but the train schedule didn’t work for a faster return to make nap time work. Instead, we continued back along the Lachine canal.

Total trip distance: 37.61 km

A morning to go to the playground on the way up Park and then to Marché Jean-Talon. We had a delicious (as always) lunch at Patati Patata on Jean-Talon before heading home. On the way home, we stopped on Ste-Catherine to listen to Oktopus (a klezmer band) and the baby danced up a storm.

During community mtgs for road diets, bike paths, bump-outs, etc., parents line up to say  "This project is stupid because it slows down traffic."  Slowing down is the point.  Parents beg for the car-oriented stuff that brings so much chaos and mayhem around schools. https://t.co/ypMbe8MChe.
