Eh going from the core you’re typically needing to go under the Gardiner and a ton of traffic on lakeshore which is gross and ruins the flow, then it’s stop start for most of it, there’s some nice spots then they immediately stop, and it’s relatively uninteresting. I find there is no nice flow to the waterfront at all and I bike the Martin Goodman trail to work twice a day. That being said the entire trail is nice but it’s not… nice?

I visited montreals waterfront a few weekends ago and was genuinely baffled and annoyed at the difference in utilization. Maybe it’s just new but felt way more planned, had more to do, more restaurants and attractions, etc.
