And I think more impressively than the numbers, is that of the first ten comments I read following the article, there were hardly any negative writers. In the past, nine out of ten would have been (the usual) disparaging comments against cyclists. It'd be nice if that's a tipping point too. We'll see what the next article brings out amongst the readers. :-)

I've been commuting now since '91 around here, and it's been fun to see the progress. My current employer has been the most pro-active in helping push the cycling, but I can't seem to get them to buy me doughnuts for some recovery from the morning commute. :-)
