Beautiful spring day for a bike ride for Tito Pilo and I, our first ride this 2006 season, particularly the route from Lachine to the Old Port of Montreal and back.
Ice and snow have not completely melted along the Lachine Canal bike path; but I'd say that the 85% of the bike path is free and clear of ice and water (from melted ice). Give it a few more days of mild temperature, the rest of the bike path will be clear of ice and water from melted ice.
We stopped for coffee at the McDonald's on St. Lawrence Blvd., by the Palais Du Justice, Old Montreal. The manager was nice enough to allow us to bring our bikes inside. This gave us a chance to warm our feet as well; I had decided not to put on my over booties, and so my feet were chilled :)
The Boat Cruise company located at the corner of St. Patrick and Lasalle blvd have a new addition to their fleet - a recommisioned Catamaran. Our gang's been talking about taking a dinner cruise along the St. Lawrence river. This could be the one for this season.
Have you ridden your bike lately?
