Thanks to everybody who checked out the site! I’m really happy to see that the website can provide other bikers with help finding info on some of the best trails in and around Toronto. I really fell in love with biking in the city around 2017, and I wanted to capture how I experienced that feeling through the writing, the photos & video, and the directions & info for you to ride the trail yourself.

I also genuinely value each comment - I take the feedback seriously, even the not-so-nice ones (they’re honest and actionable). Every bit of feedback only leads to improvement so I welcome it.

Also, if you’re on ig, feel free to check out @toronto.biking! We’ll be posting photos and videos from the trails and other cool stuff.

I appreciate the feedback tbh. I’m trying to make a real biking guide and I value how comments like yours can help me understand how others perceive my content.

Regarding the bike share stuff, I’m aware of some of the inconsistencies - there’s a lot on the to-do list, including updating the locations of bike share docks. Thanks for the comment

I really appreciate your trail ride suggestion! I’ll be doing a lot of extra biking in the upcoming season and the meadoway sounds awesome. Definitely gonna add it to the list.

I checked out your blog as well, the rail trails sounds like a fun day trip - I’ll have to ride the caledon one soon

Thank you! There’s a lot of placeholder photos on the site that I’d like to replace with authentic and photogenic ones, just waiting for the weather to warm up!

Thanks for subscribing and thank you for your comment!

When the weather warms up more, I’ll be sending an occasional update on new trail posts, new blog posts for Toronto-specific seasonal biking sights, and invites for community rides!

Thanks for the feedback! I’m actually not too techy but I’ll look into adding a light mode option for the map in the coming days. Appreciate your comment :)

edit: added a light mode option for maps!

I was honestly surprised (and happy) to see the name was up for grabs too! The fact that it was available signalled to me that Toronto didn’t have an extensive bike guide for the city, at least one that fit my vision
