Fall Approaches
Alberta's residents collectively hold their breaths, waiting for the first sight of the leaves turning vibrant yellow. Harvest is well underway in the central prairies, with combines becoming a regular sight along highways that nudge up against the borders of wheat, barley and canola fields. Fleets of school buses join in the spectrum of golds and yellow brushstrokes of the province's painted canvas. While it's still technically summer, the first breath of autumn can be felt in the cooler mornings and evenings.

Ride safely as the cycling season rolls on
Summer holidays may be coming to an end, but cycling season rolls on! Reminder for all Alberta cyclists under 18-years-old, you must wear a helmet, and it is highly recommended for riders of all ages.
