Halloween Night Bike Ride

Today's forecast:

Mostly Cloudy

Feels Like: 14°
Humidity: 55%
Dewpoint: 5°
Wind: SSE 23 km/h
Sunrise: 7:33 am
Sunset: 5:44 pm
Barometer: 1010 mb and falling

Mild but quite windy. The bike path was dry, leaves were dry, therefore they did not stick to or piled up on top of one another, they were dry and light, easily blown away from the bike path by the late afternoon wind, making the bike path less hazardous on a dark, almost moonless night.

The bike path was quiet as can be expected for a night like this, only a handful of die hard cyclists, bike riders, equipped with light flashers, bike headlights, and reflective gear.

Old Port was quiet as well with the exception of the area in the vicinity of Pavilion Jacques Cartier where a Halloween party was in progress.

Most of the following pictures were taken in front of and near the entrance to Pavilion Jacques Cartier.

Have you ridden your bike lately?
