S is also for Safe

I see "Children Playing" signs in all the residential areas I ride through; aside from some provided by BCAA, they're handmade. I think this one rocks. About 12 blocks dead-South of the Go Green bottle depot, is a family-oriented neighbourhood -- lots of children running around. Nice, until you watch one chase a ball into the path of an oncoming SUV. I saw that about two weeks ago, not a block from the location of this sign -- the driver screeched to a stop in time.

I often swoop down on the bottle depot at Ontario Street, and 7th Avenue like a cormorant. Starting in the West, I'll meander South-East -- Straight East is the direction of the bottle depot -- South is a gentle uphill climb into comfortable, family-friendly neighbourhoods. I'll generally arc as high as the 20s. and fall back down towards Broadway, aka 9th Avenue, towards my final stop at the Go Green bottle depot. Click the images to enlarge them.
There's good-and-sloppy, and just plain sloppy
