There’s an interesting article in the Times today about Mayor Bloomberg getting serious about making life easier for bikers and encouraging them to bike to work. He’s bullish on building bike lanes–200 more miles by 2010!–and erecting bike racks.
The reporter gamely points out that Bloomie has only built two miles of lanes this year. But to be fair, the guy was tied up building that football stadium on the west side these past few years.
