I managed to bike to work three times this spring. Considering the torrential downpours, humidex warnings, tendency to get up too late and the week of stomach flu, this is pretty good.

It takes me about 45 min to drop the kids off and get to work. This is about 15 to 20 minutes longer than if I was driving, so I don’t see myself biking every day. I can’t spare 40 minutes daily, though three out of the five days would be a really nice average.

I attended a meeting about sustainable suburbs and making Kanata more wakeable/bikeable. It is a concept very dear to my heart, but there is a lot about the subject that I don’t really understand, even when it comes to my own habits. I think I will examine my transport choices to see what causes me to walk, bike or take the car.
