  4. Kinda chic to wake up at 5 AM to bring my bike on the GO bus to Barrie and attempt the Simcoe County Loop Trail. Currently at East Gwillimbury to switch buses. #BikeTO #BikeSky

  5. A whole crew of friends rolled into our bike valet for the event today in Chemainus. @[email protected] you will appreciate that they all had folding bikes like Tern & Dahon. #gobybike #bikesky

  6. If you are hoping to explore that trail for yourself, I wrote about the Barrie Collingwood Rail Trail on my blog when I was there during the May long weekend. #BikeSky www.twowheeledpolitics.ca/2026/05/barr...

  7. For those of you Ontario cyclists who are trying to find the Barrie Collingwood Rail Trail, it finally shows up on Google Maps this morning! Even though it was already officially opened at the end of April. #BikeSky

  8. This week we're exploring updates to the Pacific Street protected bike lane / raised cycle track in Vancouver, BC. This bike lane includes protected intersections, bike signal lights, and connections to PBLs on Beach Ave, Burrard St, Hornby St, Richards St, and Rolston St. #bikeyvr #bikesky

  9. I would love to have a stack of cards I can hand out to e-curious folk, with a list of reliable-and-affordable #ebike lines on one side and reputable e-bike financing options on the other.

    Just because some bikes are expensive doesn't mean they all are!

  10. chat, #bikesky, I am not sure how to google for this, so I will ask here: are there standards for bike frame mounts? like the lil bosses that pepper a fancier frame for places to put random cages, etc...? does "four pack" mean anything?

  11. With today being so nice out, I biked almost 78 kilometres in Mississauga to check out the Nine Creeks Trail, the new QEW Credit River bridge, and the new Jim Tovey Conservation Area. You can read more on my blog. #BikeTO #BikeMississauga #BikeSky www.twowheeledpolitics.ca/2026/06/nine...

  13. Last month, I finished reading @[email protected]'s "If You Want to Win, You've Got to Fight" which is a short but effective advocacy manual for walking, cycling & transit supporters. A full review is now up on my blog. #BikeTO #BikeSky #WalkTO #TTC www.twowheeledpolitics.ca/2026/06/revi...

  14. Here's a nice story from Andrew (a.k.a. Cardiac Cyclist) about how one of his videos from last fall inspired a fellow cyclist to improve the West Luther Trailway west of Orangeville. Wished GO Transit would run buses there on weekends. #BikeTO #CycleON #BikeSky www.youtube.com/watch?v=3E6l...

  18. Survived riding the Barrie-Collingwood Rail Trail this afternoon in the 30'C heat. While the rail trail is pretty good, the New Lowell to Stayner stretch in particular was brutal with the loose gravel, but had some fish and chips with beer in the end. #BikeTO #BikeSky www.strava.com/activities/1...

  19. Happy Victoria Day! On the GO Train to Barrie to ride the new Barrie-Collingwood Rail Trail! Hope you are able to get out and ride today wherever you are! #BikeTO #BikeSky

  20. Started reading "If You Want to Win, You've Got to Fight" by @[email protected] this evening. So far, it gives a reminder that we cannot avoid politics if we are to change transportation outcomes. Hope to do a review when I am done. #BikeTO #BikeSky

  21. Check out phase 1 of the Esquimalt Road protected bike lane - concrete curbs, bollards, crossrides, treed medians, and connections to other bike routes. A great AAA upgrade on a main street. Nice work Esquimalt!🚲 #Esquimalt #yyjbike #bikesky

  22. I cycle through this intersection about 4 times a week, but the last few weeks it has been blocked almost every time, so I put together my clips to show how silly it is. Apologies for the quality. #OttBike #BikeSky

  23. The Barrie-Collingwood Rail Trail extension from Stayner to Angus (at 5th Line) officially opened today! Can't wait to ride it later this year! 🚲🥳 #BikeSky #ONpoli www.ctvnews.ca/barrie/artic...
