What's the most direct way to get to Cambridge on a bike (or similar mode of transport)? The only way I can think of is King Street East but that's extremely dangerous to do since there are multiple highway exits and King Street East itself has no infrastructure for anything but cars/trucks...you're stuck riding in the traffic or in the gravel gutter. You need to be suicidal to do that. The only other way I can think of is Fountain Street or Fairway Road but those are very inconvenient and would add another half our or more to your trip.
Is the only option King or just taking your bike on the bus? Or I guess you could use the gravel trails along the river, but that's hardly convenient either. I'm curious since I own a house in Hidden Valley and would like to be able to bike to Cambridge more often, but can't think of any way to do so lest I gamble with my life or just use the bus.
There is a bridge around Conestoga College.
This map is a little out of date (there is also now a path now along Homer Watson which connects along Conestoga College Blvd to the bridge as well.
