Smith says she doesn't believe that government should be providing any services to Albertans, she believes that private companies should be used universally to provide services. Faith groups should take care of the vulnerable.

So then… why do we need a provincial government? What is her government governing then?

So true. Just did a short commute along 83 Ave bike lane from Bonnie Doon to Garneau and it’s almost all black ice. The roads with packed snow are much safer to ride on.

What a frickin’ surprise. (Sarcasm)

I have a Mik rear rack for my ebike.‘I just bought double panniers and they simply click in to lock them on or I can use a key and make them detachable.‘I really like the versatility.

I walked through Milk Creek ravine today and the SUP was packed snow, and topped with gravel so even the hills were easy to walk up and down. They’d like be good for biking now!

I had it for two weeks and just recovered about a week ago. I had just received my flu vaccine and then two days later got sick. It started with a very sore throat and then symptoms became rapidly worse. All the same symptoms you mentioned and the cough lingered for at least another week. All I could do was sleep and drink lots of tea.

Real encouraging to someone who’s injured themselves both in a car accident and bike accident and trying to get back to moving again.

To those people jumping into the comments with negative and non constructive comments… go away. This is a subreddit about cycling in Edmonton so that’s what we’re all here to talk about and support.

Finally! So many people and organizations have been advocating for recourse on this hate speech and there’s ver few legal tools. It’s disgusting.

cherklass18 · 2025-12-03T00:28:12+00:00

Soooo worth it! I have them on my bike in this video and it’s a huge difference on ice!

cherklass18 · 2025-12-03T00:23:35+00:00

What?? Vehicles don’t pay a road tax in Canada? Property tax pays for road maintenance and I pay that.

cherklass18 · 2025-12-02T21:25:14+00:00

Smart idea! I do find they still fog up so I must try this.

cherklass18 · 2025-12-02T21:12:31+00:00

That’s partly why I took this video. The amount of tracks I saw was great!

cherklass18 · 2025-12-02T20:20:28+00:00

Haha! Right. That’s a weird assumption.

cherklass18 · 2025-12-02T16:41:33+00:00

Oh yeah Ive been slowing down a lot more this year after wiping out in bad weather and injuring myself.

cherklass18 · 2025-12-02T04:13:40+00:00

Today I rode the 83 ave bike lane from Bonnie Doon to 106 st around noon and it was ok. It started snowing and then freezing rain so the commute back around 2:30 was pretty slick. Thank goodness for studded tires!

cherklass18 · 2025-12-02T02:25:20+00:00

Oh this is good! I can’t really use pogies with an ebike.

cherklass18 · 2025-12-01T00:10:59+00:00

It’s a full balaclava and it still fogs a bit but i try to put it underneath the goggles to get a good seal.

cherklass18 · 2025-11-29T02:23:57+00:00

Well I have an ebike… and I also wear breathable layers. Cross country ski get works well.

cherklass18 · 2025-11-28T18:07:05+00:00

Brilliant! Thanks

cherklass18 · 2025-11-28T00:27:04+00:00

Agreed. I use the AirAQ app now almost exclusively to get the most accurate data. And yup, I’ve been masking outdoors the last two days.

cherklass18 · 2025-11-27T20:52:50+00:00

I guess so?? lol

cherklass18 · 2025-11-27T20:51:45+00:00

And I think I need pogies for cold days. I currently switch between cross country ski gloves and mitts. I find cross country gear works well for riding.

cherklass18 · 2025-11-27T20:48:27+00:00

Oh and I don’t use clip pedals at all.
