On my commute yesterday I counted three cyclists out riding on the Mississauga roadways. Spring must be here – especially since the Toronto International Bicycle Show is happening – and the Cycling Committee will be there again. March 5 – 7, 2010.
The Mississauga Cycling Committee will be hosting a booth again at the show. We will be located in the most fun zone. Booth # 591 behind D’Ornellas and close to Toronto BMX Jam and the Mountain Bike Feature. Stop by on your way back to the events. Yes, we will have jellybeans again this year.
We want to be face to face with the cycling enthusiasts of the GTA. With the public presentation of the Mississauga Cycling Master Plan close at hand, we want to hear what’s on your mind. with all that’s going on:
- Mississauga Transit has installed bike racks on the buses.
- Downtown 21 is presenting a cycling & walking dreamscape for the City Centre.
- The Mississauga Cycling Master Plan to bring their work to the public by this summer.
- Tour de Mississauga 2010 is already in the planning stages for the North-West quadrant this year.
- Bike to Work days will kickoff in May with a free pancake breakfast at City Hall.
- Further connectivity is being constructed in our growing trail system, and a host of other grassroot initiatives are taking form from Malton to the beautiful south in Port Credit. Can you see the changes that are happening?
If none of that is reason enough for you to drop by, we will also be handing out the infamous Mississauga Bicycle Trail Map in its full glossy format. Even though we have plenty, there are popular items and move fast. Come by early to chat and sign up for our events and get your name on the Mississauga cycling contact list.
Let’s cycle ‘sauga!

Mississauga bike maps
Was there a new edition of the Mississauga Cycling Map given out at the bike show? The most recent one I have from 2009 doesn’t have some of the new bike lanes built last year ( hydro corridor along Speakman Drive, and the full length of Confederation Parkway bike lane is not shone)
Yes. We got the new 2010 Mississauga Bike Maps literally hot off the presses on the Saturday. Basically, we started handing out the 2009 maps and then moved to the 2010 maps when they came in. We don’t have the 2010 PDF file yet but when we get it you can be sure it will be downloadable from our bike maps section.
