getting past 401 is the hardest part and its already a challenge in good weather, nevermind if its bad weather.

i usually take bayview and then to eglington and then to mt pleasant.

the ride home is considerably more challenging and i did this a few times. the most memorable one was in work clothes, just bought a used bike that was 20+ yrs old, 75psi tire pressure, and saddle height was 5 inches way too low.

its a climb all the way up mt pleasant on the return.

i still got home about 15mins after the subway would have gotten me.
