Can't we get rid of the gates on the Martin Goodman Trail at Ontario Place? As well, how about removing some of the sharp iron stumps along the trail?

Please TCU - create a family category for memberships!!! I've asked for this through both the website "contact us" link and by email because I don't want to get four copies of everything sent out through snail mail. I even sent a special request when I learned we'd be getting a free issue of Dandyhorse, but I still ended up with four copies. Since I haven't gotten replies through the other means of communication, I'm hoping someone with the power to implement the change will read this here and follow-up. I also never got a reply to my emails offering to help with data analysis for the cycling survey - anyone? I don't want to make this thread about communication with the TCU (I know that's one of the hardest things to get right with an almost entirely volunteer run organization), but I just don't know how else to get my message across.
As for the magazine itself, I only had the time to read the article on dooring and I was happy to find out that the issue is more on the radar than I'd realized. I've sent a few emails about poorly designed bike lanes next to parked cars in the past couple of years and was starting to think that maybe it was just me and I should just drop it. I felt validated reading the article and encouraged to keep raising the issue. Looking forward to reading the rest of the issue.
I'm curious what kinds of articles people are interested in reading in a cycling magazine. For myself, in order of preference:
1) advocacy and progress with cycling infrastructure
2) weekend family cycling routes
3) cycling infrastructure in other cities - what works, what doesn't work
4) handy dandy accessories for commuter cyclists
