That goat track at the right of the stroad? That's a *desire line* 😨. That's what I ended up doing too: I just got up on that narrow bit and walked the bike for half a kilometre after literally RUNNING with it across the highway offramp.

I'll just drop you at the point where the painted bike lane is *marked as crossing the onramp* and then just. . . vanishes. Enjoy this example of "but the bike lane brought me here." (The Google car seems to have come through here on a relatively quiet morning.) maps.app.goo.gl/sKjYbSLiyCL5...

That's horrifying. Is there a longer detour, like somehow on Highway 128? I would take a long detour to avoid that overcrossing.

I used this route, crossing St Laurent headed east just south of the 417 I to the industrial area. Cyrville wasn't a pleasure to bike on but it did have a painted bike lane and no on/off ramps to cross. There's a pathway behind the plaza that connects to the rail trail. Not legal access I'd guess.

I considered hopping onto the path behind the Rona and then cutting cross country through the farm (there's a single track) to the Dewberry Trail and picking up Walkley at the trailhead (slightly less terrible highway crossing) but had a time constraint to deal with

That tiny little yellow diamond sign with "Share the road" in English and French under it Deadly by design x.x

Just *chef's kiss*, that sign. Peak #Autowa. No notes.

I have many notes and can be trusted to not show a table full of road designers a magic trick.
