| - Love, love, love this Leslie Street Spit trail for cycling. In the summer, it feels like a PEI scenic vacation, without leaving the city! Pack a lunch and ride your 6k to the lighthouse. On the weekends, there are no cars so you can really enjoy the ride on the paved road. The last k to the lighthouse is loose gravel. You will see wild flowers, lots of big black birds (cormorants), skeletal trees that have been fossilized by the cormorant population, huge boulders, an old gas station, a steel bridge, and the city from a different perspective. This is one of the most fun ways to spend a summer day on a bicycle without really leaving the city. (This and perhaps going on the Ferry to the Toronto Islands.)
