Environment Canada claim that it is 6C going up to 10C but it doesn't feel like it. Once again there is a very brisk cold wind blowing off the lake. It is though beautifully sunny so i decided to risk a bike ride. A bike ride in Toronto in late January is pretty special. So I put some air in the old tyres and headed down to Cherry Beach and then East. There was one daft bugger windsurfing but, naturally enough, a distinct shortage of scantily clad young women. Then I decided to head out to the end of the Leslie Street Spit in search of more probable forms of bird life. It was a stiff pull going out into the stiff, cold breeze but the lake looked just lovely. There was plenty of bird life on the artificial wetlands but I have no idea what it all was. They had feathers and swam. It was also quite muddy towards the end of the spit. Always fun on a bike! The spit is great though. I love it out there even when it's as cold as today.
