Someone’s been reading Kerouac.
Love riding in the city but I have the luxury of a non-9-to-5 job. 10am to 3pm are fine as is 8pm and later.
Coming back from the country after 3:00 one places themselves in the path of the homebound zombies. Take a two lane and prepare to be forced off the road by a car coming at you in your lane or take a 400 series and get stuck in traffic because of a fender bender.
It takes me 30 minutes to get to somewhat relaxed riding. A friend in Caledon gets there in 30 feet.
