No, I haven't. My Montreal experience is limited to downtown, where being a pedestrian is reminiscent of the old game Frogger. I'd rather leave the bike at home, thanks.
I'm honestly not a big believer in completely separate bike pathways. I usually take the shortest route from point A to B, particularly at this time of year. Google turned up
a map of Montreal's bike trails. . Seems to follow the waterways, and looks completely useless for daily commuting, shopping, etc.
I haven't found a maop shopwing bike lanes, side-paths, etc.
