Well, at least we haven't had landslides or cougar encounters
As Spring unfolds in Ottawa, it is getting in the way of my riding in spots.

Prpbably not, as it is being redeveloped. Condos are going up everywhere, and an arena is to be built to move the Ottawa Senators closer to the downtown. http://preview.tinyurl.com/LebretonFlatsPark -- Andrew Chaplin SIT MIHI GLADIUS SICUT SANCTO MARTINO (If you're going to e-mail me, you'll have to get "yourfinger." out.) |

The video is taken with the camera pointed pretty close to the fronttire but the person says it's a downhill where you can hit 40 KPH (25 mph) pretty quickly. I wonder if the dead bicyclsit had swereved to miss another bicyclist(s) coming the opposite way? Cheers |

You would not get me out on one of those, save on those stretches of the Rideau that are part of the canal system, and the Ottawa below Parliament Hill. -- Andrew Chaplin SIT MIHI GLADIUS SICUT SANCTO MARTINO |

Another cyclist would have heard the crash or splash and would have stopped to investigate, I would think. -- Andrew Chaplin SIT MIHI GLADIUS SICUT SANCTO MARTINO |
