It's been a bike filled week here for us. Last Sunday was Open Streets, where Lyndale Ave (main commercial strip 3 blocks from our house - think 4th Street for the Calgarians reading this out there) was open to only non-motorized traffic (bicycles, unicycles, tall bikes, strollers, pedestrians, etc) for a 20 block stretch. We went to check it out for a couple hours and partake in the general merriment of the day.
Then on Friday, there was a criterium over in uptown (about 10 blocks away). S,o we wandered up Friday late afternoon to check out the opening bmx stunt bikes and watch the beginning of the ladies' race before having dinner at a restaurant along the race course. After dinner, we watched the first 15 laps or so of the men's race as we walked back home along the outside of the course. It was lots of fun...those guys are moving so fast!!
