Bonjour from Montreal
Hi to you all,
My name is Mario. I live in Montreal, Canada and I ride my bikes 12 months a year, even when it's -15 C, like tonight.
I ride close to 25 km (15 miles) each workday. No fancy bikes. My winter bike is a beaten Raleigh Challenger10 speed bike converted to single speed (48-18).
When the nicer temperature will be back (in a couple of weeks) I'll use my touring bike (Mikado D'Iberville) for commuting.
I also own a performance hybrid (Marin Fairfax 2004) that I now mainly use with a CoPilot Limo Bicycle Child Seat for riding my 2 year-old daughter to the nursery, the park, trails, etc.
Nice to meet you all on this wonderful resources.

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

Thanks to you all.
Zenith. I've stayed in Calgary and in other communities in Alberta and Saskatchewan for 4 months in 1981 in a seismic survey summer job; Banff (3 and a half months in 1986) and in the Penticton area in the Okanagan valley (B.C.), close to a year in 1984.
