Downtown outdoor spaces

I imagine our different experience might be based on when we go through? I'm not commuting by bicycle right now, so my trips all tend to be after work hours on nice days and weekends, exactly when the park is full of children or people out for recreation.

Well then you go slow and enjoy it which is what parks are for. If you are in a rush take Victoria or Queen.

"Take Victoria or Queen". I mean David is a reasonable option, although some still find it intimidating, but neither Victoria not Queen are remotely cycleable.

Of course the park itself is pleasant but even when I am not in a rush, on say Saturday, the park is so full, I might as well just walk, it's dangerous to try and actually cycle at anything other than a walking pace.
