Hello from Etobicoke (Toronto)
Hi everyone. Cycling has been a hobby at various times in my life and in July I will be moving to a house that backs onto an extensive bike trail. I'd like to resume cycling by buying a decent and comfortable bike. The idea of an electric hub motor for those big hills seems intriguing (hope this isn't sacrilegeous!). Now 58, I had polio as a child, which weakened my left leg.

Welcome kb, I am also an Etobicokian, lived here for 43 yrs, am 50 in a couple of months, I ride the humber river trail almost every morning from Spring to Fall from Albion Rd. to the end (Humer College), its a nice easy ride with no serious hill climbing since it follows the river. Where in Etobicoke are you moving to, I'm at Islington/Elmhurst area?

Yup it does, goes right down to the lake, then you can take the Martin Goodman trail right to
Ontario place, makes a nice Sunday afternoon ride, enjoy!
