Some thoughts on the Expodium Montreal bike show

We visited the bike show on Sunday. Lots of people, lots of booths, and lots of travel destinations.

Some highlights:

• test riding a bixi. With my near-empty backpack in the handlebar rack, when I stopped riding and put the bike on the kickstand, the Bixi was very keen to fall over. It liked it!
• booths from tourism offices from a dozen Quebec regions.
• The excellent bike maps available from the regional tourism office booths.
• Giving feedback to the booths where I visited last year

Some suggestions for future shows: get the AMT to tell us about their new Bikes on Weekends regional bike trips. Huh? OK, I made this one up. Sorry (catherine), but there is no AMT bikes on Weekends program. But maybe one day we will get one.
