Ride my bike on extremely busy and dangerous Ogilvie Road? No. I just say NOGILVIE! #ottbike #ridemycity #dumbjokes

New bike brake pads squeak
Bicycle mimics birdsong
High pitched fun on wheels

There, I haiku’d it for you lovelies. #ridemycity

When you come across stairs on the path and there’s a little ramp for walking your bike? Happy Shanker. #ridemycity

Bicycle style. Happy World Bike Day. Another friendly morning on the pathways. Pedal your troubles away. #RideMyCity

Excellent bike ride weekend. They’ve cleared most of the fallen trees from the river paths. See you out there pals! #ridemycity #ottbike

I went past a spot where I’d had a bike accident last year. I wondered if I’d be triggered. I wasn’t. It is not cursed ground nor is it sacred. I remained upright and pedalled away steadfastly. #ridemycity

I was pedalling quickly and wasn’t sure if the sign read:
‘A+ Duct Cleaning’
or: ‘Adult Cleaning’

Whatever. Ninety-nine dollars sounds like a good deal either way. #ridemycity

It’s a beautiful day out here in the architecture. #ridemycity

New brake pads squeak when freshly installed. My bike makes birdsong if I play it right. So fun! #ridemycity

My day was enormous. A stoned soft focus flurry of pink shirted activity. And much bike riding. Made a half dozen stops to make jokes and high-fives with pals throughout the neighbourhoods. All over. Sang and talked on the radio. Beautiful music in the square. Bytowne? It’s MY town! #ridemycity

No you can wait. I know you were here first but fuck you and your air conditioned car. I looked you back. I’m taking my intersection. I’m a bicycle. I’m cooler. So I win. #ridemycity #therules

This summer I’m happy to be healthy and really loving these long morning bike rides. I don’t often dress this pink but some little kid meow’d at me and I make all the Moms smile so that’s the whole thing right there. #ottbike #bicyclestyle #ridemycity

Weekend ramble. Fun sunny Saturday morning ride on LSD. Then… Sparktoberfest! Many laughs, pals and DJs while hanging in the Sparking Lot. Plus a Sunday matinee with Bec & Rusty who I adore. If we get outside in the fall air the poetry just falls out of us. Best time. #ridemycity 🧡🍂🍁

Wednesday off - early morning wake and bake. Fun ride out to the west end. Found some green space and untapped bike paths. Met a lot of friendly earlybirds. Then an afternoon with the excellent Lockmasters who play every Wednesday at the Dom. I can’t recommend them enough. #ridemycity #palsofrock

The serious cycling folk look like futuristic robots. Sleek bikes, armour & wraparound visors. Astroboy. It’s rad. I often cheer when they ride by fast fast. I’ll yell GO MEGAMAN! or some shit. At least they’re human powered & super efficient. Room for all out there. Even robots. #ridemycity

Love my city. An early morning ride all over the damn place followed by BikeNight, thousands of glowing riders gathered and cruised up and down the canal. Had the Titans game on my radio who CLINCHED THE WILDCARD! Everyone was brightly lit & full of smiles. Seriously GREAT! #ridemycity #doubledrugs

Oh wow, if today was a collectible, it would be worth a lot. Happy Shanks. #ridemycity #doubledrugs
