same tired old argument against my perspective, eh, bike oahu? boy, probably some of the ones created under the old paradigm of autocentric streetscape designs.
get a grip, the new paradigm might not even NEED 'bike lanes' !?! What do you think about america's love of motorcentricity to the detriment of quality of life and modal share distribution?
You SHOULD be fully cognizant that your city officially recognizes the deluterious effect autocentricity has had on the quality of life in Honolulu. Honolulu is trying to affect a paradigm shift, albiet one of much more limited scope at the present time.
The current economic crisis might lead to a LOT more "learn as you ride" training regardless of the presence or absense of cyclist training. What if 30 percent of the population rode bikes? would people NEED cyclist ed, or would there be an organic uptake in riding technique?
my plan for nationwide vc training under my vision of a new transportation paradigm? Cyclist training would be concurrrent with driver's ed. driver testing would be undertaken on Worksman trikes. in traffic.
whatchoo think, cbhi?
