A snide person on CBC radio last week said, “New York has its Brooklyn, Toronto has its Scarborough”. Yeah? What part of Brooklyn looks like the gorgeous lakeshore around the mouth of the Rouge?

My friend Peter lent me one of his bikes today so we could explore about 10 kilometres of the Waterfront Trail. That’s 20 kilometres, round trip. As one who cycles once or twice a decade, I was surprised that it wasn’t too difficult. Some hills, but not bad.
Below are a few more snapshots from the day. The nuclear plant does, I admit, seem Brooklynesque.

Great tour! I’m jealous. Where does the trail actually start?
We started at a water treatment plant down on Beechgrove Drive. I’m not sure if that’s the very beginning of the trail but it was a good place to start because there’s a parking lot handy. Peter has a bike rack on his car.
