ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(07-03-2019, 11:03 AM)KevinT Wrote: So I did my first bike + ION commute this morning, and was late enough that I had no issue finding a place for the bike.  At first it was nice to just roll on and stand at a lean-seat (what are these things really called?) without having to toy with a rack at the front, but after the 25 to 30 minutes from Block Line to R&T Park it was actually rather a pain to keep standing there and hold the bike with the brake on. I so wanted to love this.

Few tips, if there is space, put your bike in the space with the flip down seats, and have a seat..much more comfortable.

Also, I've found it's possible sometimes to turn the bars 90 degrees, and point the tire into a corner don't have to hold the brakes on that way.

(And I tweeted Galloway and the public WRPS account).
