cycling adventures

Janice and I love exploring on our bikes. Yesterday we enjoyed a ride through Gatineau on the other side of The Ottawa River. Along the way, we stopped for a bite on a little island park.

There is nothing like the feeling of freedom, zipping around, exploring the world on bikes. you see, hear and smell things; the sunshine and fresh air make you feel alive, and get to know the world around us.

Janice often takes her bike to work, instead of the car. Most of the city is accessible to us by bike ... it is a healthy, eco-friendly way to get around. Janice and I actually had our first date cycling around Birds Hill Park two summers ago.


Ottawa is very bike friendly, with a multitude of bike lanes and paths to explore ... along the canals and rivers, through the parks and neighbourhoods. We look forward to exploring many more wonderful rides.
