We make the papers

Ink, one of the alternative papers about town, published a bicycling issue this past week. They talked to me, but since I fall about 10 years past their target demographic, they found better subjects.

A great piece in the issue is this one on Using the Bike Racks on the bus, particularly in light of the BBC story where the reporter found the driver unable to explain the mechanism.

When all is said and done...

...more will be said than done. Particularly, in our fair city. Light rail, anyone?

The "worst city for bicycling" might be a little harsh, but nevertheless we have to start somewhere. If you've ridden in Kansas City, you know this report from the BBC to be quite accurate.

Every time we ride, and I rode home from taking my car to the shop in this drizzle this morning, we show someone that it can be done.
