[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People barely use the bike lanes we already have. The number of cyclists is pathetically small, especially given how relentlessly the city promotes it.[/quote]

This is shaping up to be the hottest year in recorded history. Maybe it’s time we start making it easier for people to commute without making things even worse. If you care at all about the planet we will leave future generations, maybe you should also get behind that.[/quote]

People don't bike when it's hot outside.[/quote]

Yes, people do. Maybe you don't, but people who are not you do.[/quote]
You are right and the PP is wrong. Bike counters show that a lot of people bike when it’s hot outside. When they absolutely don’t bike is the six months out of the year when it’s cold. [/quote]

People also bike when it's cold. Which, in the DC area, it is not for six months out of the year.[/quote]
People do not bike in the cold. The bike counters drop an order of magnitude from thousands to hundreds during the cold six months of the year. December and January is basically no one. You might believe it’s true but the data doesn’t support what you’re saying, sorry. [/quote]

So, actually, people do bike in the cold (or "cold").[/quote]
