You know if you could become enough of a "shining beacon" for someone and they become bicycle commuters... well... the trickle-down effect would solve this problem.

Don't feel smug... just get out and do it.
I've been getting out and doing it year round since 1984.

I've also written 44 columns in my city's newspaper (and other periodicals) about my committing over the last 4 years.

Does that rate as a "shining beacon"?
