I agree, it can be depressing, but even if you're the only one in your area than gives a damn, instead of cursing the dark, you can light a candle. When I first started commuting by bike here in Seville, people thought I was nuts, but now there are over 70,000 of us who ride daily in this town and over 300,000 who ride occasionally. Other cities are taking notice. People are waking up. The word is getting out.
