Cycling in Waterloo Region

[clasher]

Literally no traffic? What kind of bollocks is that... plenty of traffic on the downtown streets at rush hour, it's not jammed solid like some places in TO but it's enough that google puts red lines on the map. It's also enough traffic that I've heard people moan and whinge about it.

I used to ride 9-10km from DTK up to the industrial park north of Conestoga mall, it was a very nice commute, particularly when I was working overnights and would work 11-7... this was well over a decade ago so there wasn't any bike lanes on Lexington over the expressway, or the little bit of improvements they've done to the King St/86 interchange by Conestoga mall. Since it was industrial work I didn't have to worry about being too sweaty or anything at work.
