It's nice that Mississauga has done a lot of these bike paths all over their city but you can tell that it wasn't really thoroughly thought out before hand. Just one look at the map and you'll see how a lot of it is just "patchwork" and not a real network.
I live in Whitby and they've done a good job connecting the paths especially around the lake. I can go from Pickering to the far end of Oshawa on the lakeshore trail and even in town i notice they have many bike lanes, even really old ones.. I think the east end (Ajax/Whitby/Oshaw) has a history of cycling wasn't there some big race back in the 1920's from Ajax or Whitby along Kingston Rd. into Toronto?
