Next to the Charlevoix Bridge in the Point Saint Charles neighbourhood is this unusual bike trail.

That is hilarious! Hahahahaha. I blame the PQ for a stunt like that.

Peter: hahahaha- i love it!

You know, I had never thought of the unicycle bit. I was thinking that this was another example of a society that cannot afford enough doctors or school textbooks spending my tax dollars on a questionable art piece. I can think of so many potholes where this asphalt would be sorely needed. But unicycles? Hmmmm, could this piece actually have a functional value?

I can't believe I've never seen this, it isn't far from my house but I guess I don't ride along the canal nearly enough.

groovehouse: What a great art installation!

rorlan: i have seen rollerbladders using it!

A Walk Through Brick City


Every day, I take the PATH train into Newark, NJ to go to work. I have to walk a little ways from Newark Penn Station to my office. These are some cameraphone photos I took on my walk yesterday. The facade...
