Oh, sorry, I thought I was replying to the Showers Pass list. I wasn't trying to stir up trouble on this big a scale, only a smaller scale

The sad part is that the amount of money we're talking about here is less
than the cost to build a mile or two of auto freeway.

I'm not even going to give the Oregonian the time of day by looking at the article but when the city does absurd stuff like those idiotic green boxes, closing a lane of Broadway and special traffic lights that confuse people I don't wonder why most folks asked think funding for bike projects is a waste.

The original article was frankly, stupid. The article was written to
get people pissed off.

I posted a comment on the original article what I thought about the
article. Lame.

Vote on it otherwise Joe will write, "in an unscientific Oregonian
poll, a majority of respondents disagreed with spending money on bike
projects."

Dumb articles like that make it more dangerous for us when we train
because it causes people to get pissed off at us.
