[Edit] This is in response to rayne008's post above:

Funny you should mention that area. I walk along that stretch of 11th St. everyday on my way to work, and I was reminded of this thread this morning.

On my walk today, I saw two cyclists using the paths, and it made me wish that Calgary had more bike lanes like this one throughout the city. Literally 30 seconds after I had this pro-cyclist idea, a moron on his bike bombed through the crosswalk by the Co-op (corner of 11th St. and 11th Ave. SW), dangerously slalomed around pedestrians, then hopped the curb and rode on the sidewalk heading east-bound on 11th Ave. Any sympathetic thoughts I had towards cyclists instantly disappeared because of that d-bag.

And to answer your question, yes, there are dedicated bike lanes on both sides of 11th St.
