Is the MUP from Edworthy to Downtown (south side of Bow) maintained/plowed? Just moved to the NW so this looks like my primary route until the north side opens up again.
Used to come in from Vista Heights and the Nose Creek path was usually paved pretty good. Just the Fox Hollow segment was sometimes neglected. I ride a gravel bike w/ studs so I have to push through anything too mucky, which Fox Hollow often got a few days after a snowfall without clearing...
Thanks!!
I went through there on saturday on a little pathway ride and it was deathly icy. I think there is some natural springs that empty out onto the path as well. I cant say if they ever plow it or not but I wouldn't try it without studs or an insane amount of caution.

Thanks for the info! Yeah there's that bit between Edworthy and the rail crossing that's always soaked with water. Right where all the pavement ruts are to boot...
Counting down the days until the north side is open again!
I've asked on twitter with the #yycbike hashtag, with the north side pathway still closed I know quite a few commuters were asking if there would be snow and ice control on the south side until the north opens up again.
I wouldn't ride the south side. It's too shaded at the best of time so it'll definitely be icy all the time. It's also narrower, so I doubt it's plowed.

rode my bike in this morning for the first time in over a month. there was lots of standing while pedalling, and the part i hate the msot about this time of year, is that I leave later, so there is more traffic to deal with. I also had to deal with another slow and stupid cyclist, as i had to hang off of his back tire for a bit as i waited for a safe pass, i get past him, then i need to slow down for a road obstacle, and then he passes me again going slowly, so we start our game again. I don't usually do this, but i asked what he was trying to do. also suggested that eh get soem type of light or reflector and wear less black stuff.

I'm taking a few daylight hours off work today to get in some riding. Making up my riding during the day and working in the night. Not sure what I've become.
