There are times when you walk or bike somewhere that the hostile infrastructure makes you feel like a fool and a chump. Exhibit A, me waiting 20 minutes for a bus, trying to nurse my baby while standing at a bus stop with no shade or seating. But there are other times...

There are other times when you walk or bike somewhere and you feel like a genius, a god among mortals. Rolling up to the back door of the Ontario Science Centre from the Don Trail is one of those times. Free prime parking, skipping the shuttle line, gorgeous trail, smug level off the charts

@mbonsma I lived in Toronto for seven years, spent many of them cycling around with my daughter in her age 1 to 8 years… we were regulars at the Science Centre and I never knew about this approach vector and entrance option. 🤦🏼‍♂️ Brilliant!

@rgordon I don't know why it's not better advertised. The walk from the parking lot to the door takes like 20 minutes, or you have to wait for a shuttle!

Ugh

Lack of shade in civic waiting areas is inexcusable

@clive especially when the bus comes very intermittently 😫
