I've TRIED talking and “being nice” but have been met with incomprehension. There's a FUNDAMENTAL MISUNDERSTANDING of what Utility Cyclists are VS what Recreational Cyclists are. Councillors, you NEED to know the difference when making rash decisions like these.

We were excited to have these bike lanes go into our area, along routes that we frequent. Peter Cuddy LITERALLY SAID HURON STREET IS TOO DANGEROUS TO BIKE ON – THAT'S WHAT BIKE LANES ARE FOR!

Did you know that your laundry detergents don't dissolve and work properly in FREEZING water, only regular summer temperature tap water? So make sure you use the Cold/Warm setting during the colder months, not just the Cold setting.
Use cold in the Spring, though!
