NYC Bikers

Life is meant to be lived on the back of a bike. At least the fun parts. This blog is an effort on my part to convert the world into bikers, starting with my friends living here in Fresh Meadows! Even if I have to do it single handedly, I will civilize the bikers of New York!

Bicycle Video on the Interstate Highway System of the Netherlands or the Future of America

As my readers know, back in March Ray LaHood (Transportation Secretary of the United States) put out a policy statement that changes forever the way federal transportation funds are distributed. No longer will pedestrians and cyclists be considered second class citizens in the distribution of funds. From now on all appropriations will be distributed equally between motor vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians. Furthermore the federal government's goal is to complete an interstate bicycle highway similar to the one in this video taken just east of Leiden, Netherlands.


This could be the future of bicycle riding in the United States. Sweet!

Maes kept getting attacked by the cows whenever she biked through the fields. She decided camouflage would be the only way to survive.
