E-bikes were made for moody fall days.
Heading to a shoot on the western edge of the city and realized it was only slightly longer to via Old Banff Coach Road, a favorite of recreational road cyclists.
Sometimes it takes twice as long as driving, but the joy more than makes up for it.

Funny, I remain convinced that Danielle Smith, though her fighting with the rest of the whole damn country and consistently siding with a foreign power who has floated economic war with us, is an actual traitor.

There are many things I am thankful for today. There are many things that I am hopeful for. There are many things I know we must fight for.

I've been very excited seeing some of these #yycbike missing links filled in - ones on routes that I've traveled, sharing roads with aggressive drivers far too many times.
