@ascentale #BikeNite A1: In contrast to the usual, posting from #Montreal tonight! It’s the last night of #Bostreal - myself and 40 other folks arrived here via bike from Boston on Wednesday night and are packing up to head back via bus tomorrow. Today, we got a tour from some McGill folks and the city’s engineers of some of their bike infrastructure.
