I get the part about reducing traffic congestion, air pollution and maybe road maintenance. But how would increased bicycles reduce stormwater run-off?
I doubt that it does. If you had so many people riding their bikes that it allowed you to have less auto infrastructure then maybe... but only to the extent that the reduced auto infrastructure is not offset by the additional amount of cycling infrastructure.
