From the Bike Train website:
We are excited to announce a new pilot project that introduces twice daily Bike Train service between Montreal and Toronto offering bike racks onboard. The pilot will run from August 24 to October 8 allowing cyclists to take the train with their bikes - no box or disassembly required!
Over the last two weeks I have made a couple of trips to the Niagara Region taking photos for the fine folks at biketrain.ca
So, I made this little video to remind myself how lovely the Niagara Region is any time, with spring especially so. The First trip for the Bike Train this year will be June 27.
Could not be soon enough, I'd say.
Charlie Prinsep was hit by a car, August 4th, 2007 near Brooks, Alberta. I was visiting my family this September near Lethbridge, Alberta. I had made the suggestion that I could make some sort of memorial for Charlie as a favour for family and friends. When I got a response from Charlie's mom that it was a good idea I was committed.
My trip to Alberta is almost over and I'll be flying back to the Big Smoke in just a few days. I had started off planning my trip so that I could bring my bicycle along with me and go on a bike trip as well as visit family.
This Labour Day, while biking around the city, I stopped in at HTO park where I met Bertrand Lemeunier, a cyclist passing through Toronto on a cross Canada trip. He was relaxing on one of the teletubby hills with a conspicuously loaded bicycle.

The post below was submitted by Tinkerbell after a trip on the Niagara Bike Train.
Okay, I know what you're thinking. A bicycle named "Tinkerbell"? Hey, don't blame me, blame the biped. And while I admit that the biped's choice of names leaves something to be desired, you gotta admit that she does plan some pretty cool trips. Like this last one, taking the Bike Train to get from Toronto to Buffalo.
Last Friday, my partner Wendy and I rode down to Port Dalhousie/St. Catharines and stayed overnight at a nice B&B.
Edit: Thanks to Val of the Torontoist for the meat of this post. It's basically an amalgam of what I got from his post and some updates from Graeme's website. I guess it was one my stupid days when I used it without properly quoting. Sorry!
The Toronto-Niagara Bike Train is now accepting reservations!
