Last year i toured across Canada, and of course i wanted to visit my work on the trip, and my old work location as well. Milton and upper mississauga, with Derry Rd between them. Probably one of the worst sections of road on the trip, i can't remember a worse section off the top of my head. So i must agree with you. I know Britannia can be just as bad in rush hour, to me the best route would be Burnhamthorpe/Lowerbase
We should start a new thread about biking in the Milton area, i've always wanted to do a ride that climbs and decends all 6 local escarpment climbs (Appleyby, Bell School, Main/14th sideroad, Steeles, Applyby (north) and 6th Line. I figure it could be 700-900 meters of climbing in 35kms
