It snowed.

Sorry for the website troubles.  One minute I’m working on a new point-of-sales system, the next minute the entire website is shut down with a very severe-looking “Forbidden” error, and I find myself lacking the power (permissions, for UNIX geeks) to fix it. I did a bit of folder juggling, though, so here we are, back again.

Now then, on the subject of snow:  the east side of the High Level Bridge is much easier riding than the west side.  Yes, it’s narrower, and the railing is shorter. But you can see pavement!

Maybe it’s all too much for you to worry about which side of the bridge is best to ride on, and you just want to park the bike for a while. Maybe you need to pick someone up from the airport, do a big grocery run for a holiday party, or pick up that new Stockholm chesterfield from the city of IKEA. Perhaps you’d be interested in the Carsharing Co-operative of Edmonton: http://www.carshareedmonton.ca

Carsharing. Because practicality is one of the reasons you ride a bike.
