I'm having fun figuring out how to ride to work from the new house. The southbound route (Map) seems to be the Don trail south from the footbridge and from there to the Queen's Quay bike lane. (The footbridge stairs down into the valley are signed as being closed until Aug. 1, but they don't look open to me.)
The daylight route home (Map) has potential as a pretty brisk 25-minute workout - Queen's Quay to the Lakeshore bike lane and north on Logan. Riding the Lakeshore bike lane yesterday, I realized how conditioned I am to stopping for signs, lights, traffic and so forth - I'm really not used to 800 metres of clear asphalt to just build up momentum on. Also, the Withrow Park part of Logan is a fairly serious hill to finish things off.
