I'm not even though I...I wouldn't give up. I'm not even though I know it must be frustrating to live in a state where the "official" bike group has drunk the cool aid. The League under Andy Clarke is clearly dividing the bicycle community across the country or at least alienating a large portion of it. I think its is soon to bite them in the ass. The membership numbers are in the toilet, a paltry 25,000. Another group is ready to pounce on the millions of Americans the dump heaps of money into cycling. Even if 1% of Americans are "bold and fearless" cyclists that 3.1 million Americans that the League is somehow missing. <br /><br />Keep on writing. Don't stop. Just do it once in a while.

Your knowledge and commitment to improve on-road infrastructure that can enhance alternative transportation will be greatly missed. As we know; "Not all trails lead to a destination". We need safe roads for cyclists to be able to get to them. Thanks for all you have done.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15220331933610508336noreply@blogger.com
