Check the ride from your front door

A nearby cycling route is only part of the journey. Trace the connection from the building entrance, including crossings, access points and any section you would need to walk. Separate a route that exists today from a connection shown in a future masterplan, and assess whether the current journey suits your usual riding times. Then check the less visible practicalities: secure storage, lift access and building rules for taking a bicycle through shared areas. A rider leaving early in the morning, for example, needs access that works at that time, not just an attractive trail nearby. Try the connection where appropriate and consider your own comfort with the route. The useful comparison is the whole trip from storage to trail and back. Prepared by Masterpiece Property.
