City of Montreal from Mount Royal Park. It was a bit of a foggy morning, so it's not a stunning picture, but it was a good day for bike riding. We drove up to the park with our bikes, then rode all over the mountain. There's lots of nice park area with one spot that has a man-made lake with walking paths around it. It is also an ice rink in the winter. We'd love to see it in the winter, but the road up must be nasty. The city has a real European flair to it. The streets are a maze of cul-de-sacs and off-angle streets. We managed to find our way through downtown for a driving pass in front of the Notre-Dame Basilica of Montreal. We got a good feel for where everything is so we can park and just bike around downtown. The streets are very narrow with many one-ways, so it's a challenge for us out of towners. Next time, we may even take the transit train in, if I can decipher their french web-site.
