Damn, it felt good! Though by the end, I realized one of the downsides of winter cycling not mentioned by all the boosters of the off-season activity is ingesting several grams of dust and salt thrown into the air by passing vehicles.
Heading home along Laurier Avenue East, I noticed a new installation beside the Metro Station.
Apparently, these counters have been installed in cities around the world (http://www.eco-compteur.com/) and the city of Ottawa posts statistics for its counter for Laurier Avenue W (coincidence?) online (http://ottawa-laurier.visio-tools.com/).
In the spring, I will be curious to see if this section of Laurier Avenue East will resemble the artist's conception as posted on the city of Montreal's website (http://ville.montreal.qc.ca/portal/page?_pageid=7297,89053614&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL).
