Long Before the Bixi Bike ,Montreal Was into Bicycles

Checkout this map published in the late (dig this) 1800's ...........hahahahah Montreal had a dedicated bicyle route & even went to the extent of publishing a Map for Cyclists

So you see, there really "is" Nothing New Under the Sun...............click to enlarge the map:
