Vermont Cycling – Mad River Valley Century Ride – 2009 Edition

I had been very excited ever since my pal Steve asked me to attend the 2009 edition of the Mad River Valley Century ride. Who would have thought that Hurricane Danny would be able to get as far north as it did last weekend? Helen, myself, and our good friends Renza and Sergio drove...

Eastern Townships Cycli...

Finally —- a weekend with sunshine! At the prompting of our son Jason, Helen & I decided to set our sites on a bike ride on a small section of Quebec’s La Route Verte. This is the Quebec Government’s attempt at bringing cycling to the masses. And they have done...

Cycling – Stonebr...

I have been experimenting with various methods of tracking the routes I take. Often times I am asked about a particular route and I am hard-pressed to remember road names etc…. Enter Helen’s iPhone. It coupled along with a nifty application from EveryTrail allows me...

Prince Edward County &#...

This past weekend Helen & I had the absolute pleasure of spending our weekend in Prince Edward County Ontario. I cannot say enough good things about this area of Ontario. Especially in terms of cycle-friendliness. The roads (on the most part) are quite good. The drivers (with...

Ottawa Cycling – ...

My friend Nadine first turned me on to this ride at around the same time last year. After reading about her experience I was always curious – but never foolhardy enough to try this ride. For those of you not from Ottawa, there really aren’t many places where one can find...

Cycling in Montreal ...

Montreal is only a couple of hours away by car from Ottawa. You’d think that Helen & I would cycle there frequently. Unfortunately this is not the case as we have plenty of good cycling in our own back yard. Yesterday we decided to experience a small sample of what Montreal...

Raleigh Folder Bicycle ...

My Step-Mom (Helene) showed up over the weekend for a visit. Low & behold, what is that I see leaning up against the house? OMG, it’s a folding bicycle! Not just any folding bicycle. It’s a Raleigh Folder. I had totally forgotten that my Dad & Helene had bought...

Cycling – My Top ...

Let me begin by saying that this Blog Post was going to be about another “fabulous evening bike ride”. In fact, that’s what it’ll end up being. But before I go there I have to make some excuses. Why you ask? Because I just had a good dose of cycling reality....

Cycling in Ottawa ̵...

Wake up! It’s Saturday. Look out the window….. Things look promising. A forecasted high of 13 degrees Celsius (balmy weather for March!). ToDo: Check tire pressure on bike Get clothing ready Fill water bottle and bring snacks Eat hearty breakfast knowing very well that...
