Bike-Bus-Car-Challenge

CTV Morning Live host Jeff Hopper, reporter Sarah Freemark, and CTV News at Six anchor Graham Richardson raced against morning traffic in the Bike-Bus-Car Challenge. The bike, bus and car contestants left St. Laurent Shopping Centre at 7:45am, commuting to the Byward Market to join Mayor Watson at the finish line with a positive message about how to reduce stress, save money, and decongest traffic jams.   Even though Jeff came first in the car, Graham quickly followed on bike 3 minutes later, arriving to work feeling fresh.  Just 5 minutes later, as Sarah walked from her bus, Jeff admitted, “I may have got here first, but I feel tense.  I just spent $18 on parking my car, not to mention what I pay for gas and insurance.  Plus while I was building stress you two were releasing it”.
