"...council has clearly stated in its policies and vision for the city, cycling policy is there to encourage people to use their bikes as an alternative to cars. It is not about sport or hobbies, but about making it possible to get around town safely."
It's a sport with significant positive personal health and public environment benefits - a pillar of the Provincial Trails Strategy (2007), which communities don't enact because local councils don't usually get the necessary funds to do so.
The Ontario Trails Council is a registered charity, led by volunteers who promote the development, management, use and conservation of Ontario's trails. You'll find everything from gentle walking trails to rock faces for climbing and water routes to canoe and kayak.
