Tour de l’île this weekend
Around 19,000 cyclists are expected in Friday night’s Tour la nuit, and 17,000 are signed up for Sunday’s Tour de l’île. I remember when the night ride was the smaller event. Item includes maps of the routes.

For the first time in years, the event is happening in the east end at Parc Maisonneuve instead of the Plateau. So we’re not going – we live on the Plateau and don’t have a car – it’s just too far for kids to bike out there and back on top of doing the course.
It’s great as this allows residents who live further out east a better chance to participate, but I hope that they’ll at least alternate between east and west each year!

Meezly, to be precise, alternating between the Plateau and Parc Maisonneuve would be alternating between east and center, not east and west. 😉

When it was held annually at Parc Jeanne-Mance, it was technically west. But yes, it was more of a central spot to converge.
