We at BRBR have to object... all of these publications on bike lanes in recent weeks is making it hard for us to keep up with all of it. I remember last summer when we'd struggle to think of content, and when we did, the upload could be spread out over a few days' time or even a whole month. This seems like work, not the hopeful fun we thought to blog about once in a while. Jeez!
Hope you get the joke of our paragraph of blog NIMBY-ism above! The graphic on this New York Times article is pretty good, so is the viewpoint. Our BRBR staff has also been trying to write something more big picture viewed about these bike lanes, but we can only get so much done while typing on the subway or when we're not commuting by bicycle.
