FOOT BRIDGEGRANULAR TRAILSPAVED TRAILSBIKE LANE

The secret to cruising, touring, bombing or commuting through Edmonton by bicycle is to find the nearest ravine or river valley access, and keep to the valley as long as you can. Not only is it the most serene and shady route, it’s often the simplest, shortest, and has the least traffic to contend with. The valley winds from northeast to southwest with ravine offshoots leading up into many neighbourhoods.For the outer perimeter, bike trails and signed bike routes/sharrow lanes are generally best. Although bikes are permitted on all city roads, the Whitemud, Yellowhead and other major thoroughfares aren’t the most pleasant. Detouring around them often only takes a few min-utes, and is well worth it.

• 275 km of shared paths and sidewalks• 460 km of unpaved single-track and unimproved trail• 117 km of signed, street-oriented bicycle facilities

The City of Edmonton maintains municipal transportation infrastructure, including the bicycle transportation network. If you want more information to inquire into planning, or provide feedback to city planners, visit: edmonton.ca/cycling

It’s a good idea to carry some basic tools for quick fixes en route. At minimum, yours should include:• Tire pump• Spare tube/patch kit• Multi-tool (should have hex keys and screwdriver)• Find supplies at various bike shops around the city

All full-sized ETS buses (except

inter-municipal highway routes) are equipped with bike racks. Each rack f its

two bikes; f irst come, f irst serve. Regular fares apply, bikes

r ide free.

Biking in Edmonton

• If riding at night, use a white headlight (mandatory),a rear taillight, and reflectors so cars can see youcoming and going• Yield to pedestrians• Use a bell to alert others when passing• Bikes are allowed on the LRT• Bicycles are considered vehicles — the same traf-fic rules apply• If under the age of 18, wear a helmet

Bike Month — June, edmontonbikes.caBike Maintenance Classes and Tours — Various times thoughout the season, events.mec.ca

Bike EventsFour Edmonton beginner trails are listed in the top 20 trails in Canada by singletracks.com members: Strathcona Science Park, Terwillegar Park, Mill Creek Ravine (South) and Capilano Loop. Most bike shops host free weekly rides for all skill levels throughout the summer. It’s a great way to get to know local trails

River Valley Alliance



By Joanne Layh

Last fall the Royal Alberta Museum reopened its doors at a spiffy new downtown location after a move several years in the making. Judging by the numbers of visitors since the reopening, it was well worth the wait.

“We are much more central. We are much larger. We’ve gone from a 200,00 square-foot facility to 419,000. We’ve doubled the exhibition space,” Royal Alberta Museum executive director Chris Robinson said.

For people visiting with kids, the biggest change in the museum is the area known as the discovery wing, which contains the Children’s Gallery and Bug Gallery. The Children’s Gallery is a new con-cept for the museum. It’s a space for people who are seven and under and is based on the concept of learning through play. The galleries contain numerous interactive features to give kids a hands on experience.

“In there is the digital sandbox, which is not like the sandbox that I grew up with. When the digital interface is off it does look like a sandbox, but there is a digital projection on it that creates a topo-graphic map, yet if you manipulate the sand with your hands, you can change the topography. You can create lakes, rivers, volcanoes, you can make it snow, you can have little fish swimming in the

lakes you create, you can join your lakes together by creating a river and it’s all done through digital interface,” Robinson says.

Visitors also now have access outside the exhibition space to view staff at work in the bug nursery. “You can see what it takes to rear a whole whack of tarantulas,” Robinson says, adding that they’ve introduced film into the Bug Gallery as well to show people things that they would probably never see if they observed bugs in the wild.

For those squeamish about getting close to bugs, even from behind the safety of glass, the Human History Hall and Natural History Hall have plenty to offer.

Inside the Human History Hall are three tempo-rary exhibits including a textiles exhibit featuring GWG, Remembering the First World War (among the artifacts of this exhibit is a piece of the Red Barron’s plane), and I’m From Here, an exhibit that explores early Black settlement in the province.

Other artifacts in the Human History Hall range from Indiginous hideworking tools to pick up trucks and Oilers memorabilia.

Upstairs in the Natural History Hall you can find everything from mammoths to dinosaurs to a stag-gering variety of rocks and minerals.

But if you’re visiting this summer, the one thing you’ll want to be sure to take in is the Vikings ex-hibit, the museum’s premiere exhibit in the Feature

Gallery.The exhibit is meant to take viewers beyond

conceptions of the Vikings as violent plunderers to explore the complex culture of these sophisticated mariners.

“The title is very telling, it’s Vikings: Beyond the Legend. We’re going to focus on Beyond the Legend because I think that during the Viking age the Scandinavian influence was largely felt through plunder and raids and things like that and we have this image of Viking warriors wielding some serious weaponry and going about their business of raiding and plunder and conquest, but the exhibit subtitle is intentional with Beyond the Legend, Robinson explains. “We want to break that stereotype a little bit of what people can perceive a Viking to be.”

Fewer than 10 of the 650 artifacts are replica; the rest are original pieces from the ninth and tenth centuries. A component of the exhibit also deals with Vikings in Canada.

The showstopper of the exhibit is undoubtedly a 122-foot ship, the largest Viking warship ever re-covered. The approximately 1,000-year-old artifact has about 25 per cent original material in tact, so viewers can get a very good sense of the shape and structure of the ship.

Vikings: Beyond the Legend is on display at the Royal Alberta Museum until Oct 20.

Whatever you’ve heard about Vikings, this isn’t an invasion

By Scott Hayes

The beer tent is a common fixture at most festi-vals. That’s shouldn’t be news to anyone. It makes a lot of sense then that beer itself would eventually become the focus of a festival. But this is Alberta, the land of mountain water and endless grain fields, not to mention a population of sophisticated, adventurous, hard-working folks. One beer festival wouldn’t be nearly enough, and two is still far from inadequate.

How about six? Alberta Beer Festivals organizes them all, and president and co-founder Bill Robin-son said that beer has undergone massive growth in popularity since the Calgary International Beer Festival was first established 15 years ago.

“When we started, there were only four brewer-ies in the province. There were a couple of brew-pubs too. The concept of a beer festival was pretty foreign to a lot of people. The open market that we had here meant that we had probably the best se-lection of international beer anywhere in the world. We had a few great local breweries… but for the most part, we didn’t really have a whole lot going on,” he began.

That, put simply, has changed. There is a whole lot going on, and starting the Edmonton Craft Beer Festival 10 years ago was only the first sign of the sea change that was happening.

“By that point, we had 15 breweries and there was more participation. Now you look at the

numbers, we have 138 breweries… and there are I think 22 craft distilleries in the province that are either on the verge of opening or open, with another 20 applications on AGLC’s desk. We still have an amazing international import beer selection but you’re seeing Alberta actually compete on the world stage, which is kind of nice.”

The Calgary International Beer Festival comes first, taking over a solid early May weekend at the BMO Centre. Called Canada’s largest beer festival, it’s also rated as one of the best beer festivals in the world with more than 700 beers representing approximately 200 breweries. It has more than enough to satisfy the beer nerd while still keeping things light and foamy for the casual connoisseur. There are the staple tastings of beers, ciders and meads, seminars on pairings, and explorations of the growing distillery industry, it’s just like the organization’s website www.albertabeerfestivals.com says, “your biggest challenge will be deciding where to start.”

Oh, and there’s also the Canadian International Beer Awards for people to raise a heady toast to.

Trek north a few weeks after that for the Ed-monton Craft Beer Festival, the capital’s contribu-tion to celebrating a special industry that is hitting full steam with a frothy number of independent breweries establishing themselves in the last few years. Robinson emphasized that it too is a mas-sive event, even if it only seems a bit smaller when compared to its southern counterpart. Edmonton’s

fest features more than 150 breweries, 20 restau-rants, and 20 distilleries, all over 110,000 sq. ft. of convention space, and everything is on an upward trend.

“We’re finding that – especially in the last two years – more craft breweries are opening up in Edmonton. You’re seeing like a lot more response; people are really getting engaged in Edmonton. We were ahead of the curve in terms of opening up a festival there and then just seeing where the industry was headed.”

Edmonton and Calgary also have their own fall festivals to celebrate the harvest.

Extending beyond the big cities and moving to-ward the mountains, both of Alberta’s most popular Rocky resort towns have something to call their own too, courtesy of Alberta Beer Festivals.

The Banff Craft Beer Festival in November is called the World’s Most Beautiful Beer Festival, which might be a tall order (especially if Jasper has any say).

Leave it to Jasper to make its beer mark during the height of the downhill ski season in February. The Jasper Beer and Barley Summit at Jasper Park Lodge might sound like it involves high level international government meetings but it’s mostly a fancy way of bringing a mountain word like ‘sum-mit’ into a beer festival.

You could say that all of Alberta Beer Festivals’ events are like that: it’s all about staying in good spirits.

Alberta Beer Festivals keep you in good spirits
