@uxmark Ah yes, I remember this site. These rankings I feel are comparable to the feeling I get when biking through a city. Toronto's 45 score compared to Minneapolis' 68 felt appropriate. (Till Minneapolis killed the NiceBike fleet, boo.)

Pittsburgh @ 26. Yep, that checks out. Not sure how I'd ride in that city. I do all my riding on sanctioned trails when I visit.

@uxmark I was wondering if the US had a comparable map, but all I could find was the dataset website for the League of American Bicyclists. https://data.bikeleague.org/show-your-data/

I'm also kind of curious how the Strava heat maps could supplement regional planning for desired routing. Is it biased to more experienced cyclists? https://metro.strava.com/

National Canadian cycling infrastructure mapped to Open Street Maps could be an incredible resource for regional planners. https://www.theweathernetwork.com/en/news/climate/solutions/how-canadas-first-national-cycling-map-will-benefit-riders-public-planners
How Canada’s first national cycling map will benefit riders and public planners

With more and more Canadians cycling, it is crucial we have up-to-date information on what cycling infrastructure exists and where to find it.

@tforster no, but it doesn't surprise me, there's so many microbrews around here. This isn't too far from me though, will have to check it out.

@tforster Yeah, you definitely didn't subscribe to the Timmies Karma Card. Seriously, up north people drive 120km/h to be in front of you, then slam on their brakes to pull over. At least the road is clear after...

In Canada, it feels like a superpower to be able to drive past a Tim Hortons without needing a coffee.

@scruss he found these at Princess Auto. I'll pull one of these apart to see if I can power a uC every nTH charge, the rest goes to the fountain.
