At the District 8 town hall last week, Mayor Andy Fillmore said there is a phase two to the AAA bike lane network that will cost $65 million. He said that money was on top of the $100 million for the network.

I did some fact checking. Here's the story:

Fact Checking Fillmore: Mayor told town hall Halifax's bike lane network will cost $165 million - Halifax Examiner

At a recent town hall, Andy Fillmore said there's a phase two to the AAA bike lane network that will cost an extra $65 million. But that's not correct.

We should ship the eyeball rocks to the Indiana Jones warehouse until we can determine a long-term solution.

This was the first song. Kid's got a good troll game in the works.

My kid was DJing on the way to Thanksgiving dinner & I asked to request one (1) song. They agreed and we spent the next 22 mins listening to Alice's Restaurant

On the way home I gave them a warning that they had two (2) songs left before I switched to the Jays game...

Guess what the 2nd song was

I was having issues with Sportsnet lagging last night. Then I changed the quality from Auto to something mid and it was fine. Sounds like your issue is different though

Also I upset many rural doggos. I don't think they understand what a bike is.

I still had 25% of my battery so going all the way to Douglastown and back on a full charge is probably doable.

If I were to do this regularly I'd want a mirror.

They weren't. Lil bro ran into his friend a few minutes later and was like "we just went across the zipline!"
No mention of the rescue

They're just too light for the wind conditions.
Buddy put on a harness and was tied off on the landing end. He scooted out to them and they all got pulled in. It was all sorted before I could get a picture from the bottom.

I got to go for a bike ride around Miramichi over the weekend. It was pretty good weather for it. Did a 50km loop from Maple Glen into town with stops at Ritchie Wharf and French Fort Cove
