Cycling as transport. No special clothes needed. No fancy gear. Just people and bikes dressed for the destination.

May weekend

Our first really nice spring weekend. Bike share 1 Ottawa's bike share bikes were big hits this weekend. They were everywhere. Bike share 2 A quick stop for ice cream. By the way, it's about time the National Capital Commission allowed some refreshment stands along the multi-use pathway. Purple cruiser A stylish purple cruiser

Pashley pup

We seemed to have skipped spring this year as temperatures soared to the low 20s. Cyclists were out in force today including this pair on a blue Pashley. It's also important to match your bike to your puppy sling!

The changing season

It's been a few days since we had some warm weather (see below) so the jackets, gloves and scarves are out in full force.

This shot was from late September and jackets were not required yet.

Black and yellow

Well, that's changed.

red helmet

I wasn't happy with the pic above when I took it in May. Slightly out of focus and there is that, umm, helmet thing. But things change and so do cyclists. As you can see below, the helmet is gone now...the MUP is a pretty safe place to cycle after all.
