I'm trying to do this mainly for hockey, which is why I think pushing myself faster over a shorter distance might be more beneficial versus a long drawn out bike ride.

Hey Azure,
Just an idea, but if your looking for some riding over shorter distances at higher intensities try the glenmore velodrome. The races range from 400m-15k at the longest and its has the distinct advantage of no cars and if you dont want to race its still a great place to train They offer free learn to ride clinics throughout the summer, but since I havent managed there in a couple years so im not sure the exact dates/times.
