the park is closed - to cars!!

Spent the last two days out riding on the road bike, something that I've not done in some time since 'cross season has started up. Gatineau Park has recently closed for vehicular traffic, which means no cars, which means riding without the worry of cars buzzing by... very nice!
What few leaves are still left on the trees make for some very nice colorful scenery. Lets not forget the wildlife, who are always quite active in the park, sightings are now (without as much traffic) a bit above average - awesome! Monday three deer were standing in the middle of the road, countless squirrels are out, no bear sightings yet, but I'm sure they are in there somewhere.
Looking forward to some more nice weather, the park will make for great riding untill the snow flies, but I'm sure that wont be too far off...
