Bikes and Trains Galore

The opportunities for cyclists to get out of the city with their bikes—and without their cars—are multiplying. The Bike Train will be kicking off its third season on Friday June 26 with trains running from Union Station to St. Catharines and Niagara Falls. It'll be the first of eight weekends of service to Niagara, with travel dates stretching into October. Last year's experiment with Friday departures from Toronto proved popular, so there will now be Bike Trains leaving Toronto on Friday (or Thursday) every weekend on the schedule, in addition to the regular Saturday and Sunday trains. Return tickets are a little more expensive this year—up to $62 from last year's $59—but one-way tickets for those embarking on longer tours or finding another way home are down from $35 to $31.
