[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]this thread proves [b]there are bike advocates who will not stop until there is bike infrastructure everywhere[/b]

For the life of me I have no idea why a mode of transportation used by 5% of the population tops has so much pull it's insane.

We should be making decisions for the 75% plus people who drive not the 5%

You're right. We won't stop until there is bike infrastructure everywhere. Because there should be bike infrastructure everywhere, just like there should be pedestrian infrastructure everywhere. And when there is bike infrastructure everywhere, a lot more people will bike. Why do so few people bike? Because there is so little bike infrastructure.[/quote]

cost benefit analysis for a mode of transportation that is used by 2% or so of the population and thanks

signed those of us who live in the real world

In the real world, there is a connection between infrastructure for X and use of X.

It should hardly be surprising that there is so little biking when there is so little bike infrastructure. Just like there would be very little driving if there were very little car infrastructure.[/quote]
