Howden Bike Lanes are being ripped out Ford style by #Brampton council, cyclists will be dumped into car lanes for now.

Nimbys rejected compromise to return right turn lanes.

Rowena Santos was the only councillor who stood against this reckless decision

Brampton Cllr Power might have the votes to remove one of our protected bike lanes. A car brained resident got 200 signatures to remove it. I know the cycling community can blow that out of the water

Please sign the #BikeBrampton petition to save them

I just stumbled across this off-the-beaten path bike shop, Hamilton Trike, in Hamilton Ontario that might be of interest to someone.

“The trial process has had a massive effect on her life"

No mention of the effect it had on the painful death of the cyclist, and her surviving family members.

I had an opportunity to be an Ontario by Bike tour ambassador today; accompanied out-of-town group ride, shared my knowledge of local points of interest along their planned route. LOTS of climbing, way up a north section of the Niagara Escarpment #BikeBrampton #BikeTO

I have to mount two new Continental 25mm road bike tires on rims this afternoon. If you've ever used Continentals ... please send thoughts and prayers.

When I disembarked at Bramalea GO and walked along the train to the stairs I saw that there was a bike couch in this train set.

I think it would be better for all passengers, not just those with bikes, to provide this information to people travelling with their bikes.

I cannot understand GO Transit’s reluctance to provide this information

I have repeatedly requested that GO provide this information and have been told by the Twitter Kitchener Line account that they will pass the request along. Nothing has changed in the years that bike coaches have been available.

There is not time to comfortably walk the length of the train to discover whether or not there is a bike coach available

After the platform was announced, I carried my bike up the stairs and then a considerable distance down the platform to the first coach. Because there was room on this couch for my bike I boarded.

There is no information available on the screens in the station, on the platform, or on the website, to indicate whether or not a train will have a bike coach.

I used the 19:04 train with my bike from Union to Bramalea GO on Thursday night. I boarded from the York Street end. The platform is announced only 10 minutes before the train leaves.
