Patty Wiens - Winnipeg’s First Bicycle Mayor | Bike Route: From IKEA to McGillivray and Kenaston via Fort Whyte Alive @pattyrollingfree | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
Another video in a series about #cyclingroutes in #Winnipeg. Today we explore the path through Fort Whyte Alive. This can be a relaxing way to go from Sterling Lyon to Kenaston while avoiding car traffic. However, it’s not always an available option, because it depends on park hours.
This also involves sidewalk riding because some stretches have no safe bike infrastructure, but there is no interaction with traffic for the most part. This also features the brand-new crossing light at McGillivray and Brady Rd.
You may use the chapter markers below if you’re using this video on the go as a guide through the route or download the Google Map below.
