STORY CONTINUES BELOW THESE SALTWIRE VIDEOS
I ran into an old friend from my former cycling team at the bike store today.
He commented, “I won’t ride on the roads anymore.” I replied “me neither.”
I moved to Mount Pearl in 2003 and discovered their wonderful paved trails. About five years ago I developed arthritis in my knees.
Walking is painful, but I can bike for hours.
I ride the trails here regularly and have had no problems sharing the trails, they have been a godsend.
St. John’s should take a lesson from Mount Pearl and move forward with their bike plan.
Dave Healey,
Mount Pearl
