An alarming rumble began to fill the air. I looked up from the flowers just in time to catch these motorcyclists going out for a charity run.

Same spot on the bridge but looking up Bank St. It is like this (and worse) all the way up to the Queensway. Everyone suffers - people, businesses, tr (...)
