Ottawa Biking Adventures

Lots of cars blocking the bike lanes again. They really do not seem to be aware at all.

Also, skating on the canal at 01:08 and a fellow bike ride recording person at 05:16.

My January compilation of my #Ottawa bike commute!

So many cars stopping way past the stop line and blocking cyclists and pedestrians. But also a lot of people skating on the Rideau Canal which is nice! (00:23 and 02:39). Some minor technical difficulties due to ice build-up at 05:55, but easily overcome!

A whole lot of snow and lots of bike lane blocking. Also some nice sights though and free coffee by Bike Ottawa at 02:12.

My commute video for November. First snow and thus immediate bike lane blocking. Also quite a bit of new biking infrastructure opened. Some better than others! A bit of protest at 3:26 too. Well-deserved pedestrian "signalling" at 5:00. 😆

Almost exclusively bike lane blockers this time. Barely any attempts to run me over this month so that's pretty good!

Also featuring the slow bike race from the Bike on the Hill event at 01:54!

And I have a new camera now. The AKASO Brave 7 LE was unfixable so I have a Go Pro HERO 12 now. I'm impressed by the much better audio it has. Really good against wind noise.

Not too much in the way of biking. Just cars blocking all the intersections and lanes. Bit of Pride parade though even though it was cancelled due to a protest.

Also, my AKASO Brave 7LE bit the dust. Very sad. I'll have to get another camera now...

My commute for July. Not too eventful except for a blatant murder attempt at 03:31! Also quite a splash at 00:48.

My June 2025 commute compilation feature many bad drives as usual. Also a somewhat surreal encounter at 02:32. But there are also some more scenic routes at 04:09.

Sadly the April 2025 commute was lost due to a harddrive failure but here is the May 2025 commute! Plenty of cars misbehaving of course, but also some of the prettier parts of Ottawa and Gatineau. Though there was a very confusing detour at 01:18. Brutal assassination attempt at 07:09 which was really scary...

Snow is finally melting and the paths are clear again. Well, except for those blocked by cars of course!

Also damage that was quickly fixed thanks to McCrank's!
