Yes, the reduction in cycling participation by kids, along with all non-organized outdoor activities isn't a good thing. My reference to the good thing, is strictly about no growth in fatalities and serious injuries. And before anybody give me false credit for caring, my interest is only in that it helps keep away government scrutiny.
