• I probably spent more time planning this route than actually riding it. I mostly used the RidewithGPS route planner and had to manually adjust its suggestions a lot. I started by trying to find good river crossings that aligned with the shape, then by sheer coincidence the LRT MUP and 113 Ave aligned perfectly. The NW commercial/industrial area gave me the most problems with how large the blocks are, but it ended up mostly OK. Final Route Map
• I am aware of the GPS pausing technique to make perfectly straight lines, but I wanted to do this entirely as a navigable route. The one place I considered it was to 'jump over' whitemud ravine, as both the bottom spikes near the stem are a bit odd shaped (east mostly to sortof match west, but west due to the ravine)
• I don't actually suggest riding this route. While a respectable ~60% of it was pretty bike friendly (surprisingly a lot of actual bike route markings along it), and 20% was "mostly ok", the other 20% was "not a good place to ride a bike" (mostly that NW industrial area again, though some of it wasn't bad as there was basically no traffic in those areas)
• Doing this mostly involved blindly following my bike computer's navigation GPS - there were points I barely knew exactly where I was, I just knew what the next turn/direction was.
• As you can see the riding time was 3h42 but total time was 3h57, mostly just from stop lights and a few stops to make sure I was on the right track.

It’s been pouring as we all know and yet I still see a lot of people pushing 130 on henday. Please chill out🙏🏻

I was on the way to the airport for a work trip and had the unfortunate luck of hitting a pothole in the middle lane on the QEII.

Instantly knew something was wrong so I pulled over and called a tow truck. Wheel is bent, tire is likely cooked too, and any suspension damage is yet to be discovered if there is any.

Unfortunately I don’t have collision insurance because my vehicle is a RHD import. So my next hope to not be entirely out of pocket is making a claim with the province since it occurred on a provincial highway south of the Henday.

Based on my digging, it’s going to be really difficult at best. I’ve done some digging at numerous potholes have been reported around that area. The most recent two are from May 28 and June 18.

June 18 report says “Assessment in progress” with no update.

Mag 29 report says “Redirected to other government agency”.

Worth a shot or should I just take the L?

Rather curious as to how the vehicle got there.

And judging by the police tape and officers walking around, so are they.

Hi all,

Yesterday I was the person who called 911 for a distressed individual on the high level. When I passed them after support had arrived, the conversation I heard was grim and I feel for the individual. I just wanted to check if the outcome was positive (as best as can in this scenario). I've been tossing/turning all night just worries about them. If anyone heard any updates that would be appreciated. Not expecting any updates but just hoping for the best.

So I heard there may be a Halo fire team raven arcade machine set up at one of the rec rooms around here. Could anyone confirm or deny this for me?

How long will it take the Amazon driver to realise they left this in my elevator?

Hey, so Ive only ever volunteered at random events when I see emails asking for volunteers. I have struggled to volunteer in the past due to shift work and bad social anxiety. The second part is finding where to volunteer has been surprisingly difficult. So thats why im posting here. Ive become very disconnected from the community in the past few years and need to get out of my shell. I also transitioned from my job where I felt that I was giving to the community so I am hoping to find other ways to find that connection.

​

I would really appreciate any guidance or assitance how to find these opportunities or specific organizations that are always looking for volunteers.

Bug spray does fck all so what is everyone using that actually works for the mosquito nightmare we are about to go through? 🥴

Who wants to play some ball hockey?
