I know there was some talk about riding the closed section of the Bow Valley Parkway earlier in the thread, but I just wanted to encourage anyone who has an interest to do it. I just rode it this morning to Castle Junction and back, and it was a ton of fun. Also great for families and less advanced riders as there wasn’t really any tough hills other than one about 15 km in. Otherwise it was just gentle rollers mostly, and the pavement was all good, but probably over half is very new and in excellent shape.
Combine that with no cars and gorgeous views, it’s worth doing this year while it’s closed to vehicles. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
