Greetings -- I am visiting the area for a few weeks and was wondering if it is safe to ride Canada Road in the evening after work, when it's dark. Any help would be great.
I've never tried Cañada in the dark. Your biggest worries would be fast traffic between 92 and Edgewood, and possible debris in the bike lane. (There might be wildlife, too, such as deer.)
No shady humans that I know of, but I probably wouldn't do that part of Cañada unless I had -really- strong lighting and proper reflective gear.
The part from Edgewood to 84 probably wouldn't be quite as crazy, with the lower speed limit and two stop signs. It's doable, but again, not without good lighting and gear. However, that part also isn't as scenic or "open."
