Becel Ride For Heart

All in all a fun ride and for a good cause too.

yeah, one of the bonuses of being on a corporate team is that you get lined up near the front... I was tempted to sign up for the 75km portion, but figured it was just an extra loop to the bayview exit which is hardly exciting.

But you're right, the hills going up are quite long... but to be honest, I find the wind coming back down to be a real pain in the ass... can't get any real speed up. It looks like a 90kph downhill, but it's exasperating to hit 65.

Overall, it's a couple of fun hours out of my morning, and an afternoon outside.
