Treehugger: Velo-City: Cycle Tracks Will Abound in Utopia
Cool idea, but I can’t see any government approving the cost.
Those of us who try to ride bikes in the winter often wonder why cars get their own big right-of-way, transit riders get expensive underground subways, pedestrians get an elaborate network of underground walkways, and we, if lucky, get a white line on pavement marking a so-called bike lane filled with snow or cars.
There is a chance.
The government does not use their own money.
If they have any of our money left after paying themselves, they will throw it at all kinds of things.
Think how cool this would look downtown.
A civic makeover to brag about at the next important mayor’s meeting.
In the Bahamas.
