[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's kind of insane how much of our transportation resources have been hijacked by a tiny group of Bernie bros[/quote]

Males with no kids benefit - anyone with kids is not using the bike lanes in the am and I never had a job that I could show up sweaty wearing biking clothing makes no sense [/quote]

I (a woman) biked my kids to school regularly for years while en route to my fancy downtown office job.  There was a gym onsite, so I could shower and dress there.[/quote]

+1, at many offices, it's very easy to "show up sweaty wearing biking clothing" and then just shower and change before you go upstairs. Does depend on when you have to be in the office vs. when you have to be at school for dropoff, but this idea of PP's that it's completely impossible for (a) parents or (b) specifically moms to bike to work is silly. You also don't have to bike in "biking clothing," though it is often more comfortable.

(At my kid's elementary school in upper NW, drop-off is very dad-heavy, anyway.)[/quote]
