    The PBSC app automatically keeps track of your time on the 'Trip' tab. I've only gone over once, on my first attempt from Victoria Park Station to Guildwood GO last year, using a mechanical bike. That trip is pretty much impossible in 30 minutes when not using an e-bike and I think I went 2...

    I think a time limit per day would be better than a session limit. Make it something like 2 hours and it would barely affect regular riders while preventing food delivery people from hogging them.

    Found an e-bike in my lobby yesterday, obviously being used by a food delivery person.

    I left one at Guildwood GO for you. It'll probably be there for a few days since there aren't any food delivery cyclists out there. Also, made it in under 30 minutes again!

    The figures look correct to me. In the AM peak period, counterpeak service requires a bus transfer at Bramalea to get to Brampton GO, resulting in a 69 minute travel time. During this time, peak service has a trip time between 34 and 42 minutes from Brampton GO to Union.

    I doubt they're doing buses as well since it's a 'pilot' and they're not even bothering to set up Presto west of Kitchener.

    I'm seeing $42 with tax for tomorrow from Union to London. GO will likely be $10 cheaper for twice the time. Also, ONEX Bus will get you there in 3 hours for $30.

    GO won't be much cheaper. They already charge $19.40 to Kitchener.

    That's the route I used to get to Bramalea City Centre from Bramalea GO a few weeks ago. There are some really nice bike paths on the other side of Avondale if you use the illegitimate path to get there.

    This is a station move:

    I've always wished there was a daily time limit for e-bikes. Even if it was 2 hours, it would likely stop delivery drivers from hogging them, while the impacts on regular users would be minimal.

    I noticed some new stations today: Yonge Street St / Woodlawn Ave York University (Glendon Campus) 1529 Dundas Street West 909 Yonge Street Also, there's 2 new stations at Thomson Memorial Park for some reason.

    Tried to dock at Lake Shore/Ontario during the air show yesterday. Dock was full but I waited a bit since I had lots of time on my trip. Two minutes later, someone came and took a bike so I could dock mine.

    I took the 25 to St. Jacobs Market a few weeks ago and it was a terrible experience. First, the 21 bus from downtown was 10 minutes late because of traffic, and the connecting 25 doesn't wait for the 21. I brought my bike so I got off the bus before it did the Square One loop, quickly rode to...

    Pretty bummed out that there are no express trips on the 25. The pre-COVID schedule was way better: https://www.gotransit.com/static_files/gotransit/assets/pdf/TripPlanning/FullSchedules/FS31082019/Table25_MI.pdf

    This would be useful, but the 25 already has way too many stops. Hopefully the express buses to Waterloo come back in September.

    Fun fact! LA's A Line will surpass the length of the Belgian Coast line at 79.7km once the Regional Connector is completed next year.

    News on retail chains (was: New Mall Retail)

    Still open. I was there last weekend. The signs probably indicated that they were closed temporarily during step 1 of reopening.
