Question of the day from guy looking at the double straps I tried to sell: "Can you cut these in half?"

Paul, I'm sure CBN would be very happy if you volunteered to help. Given the interest (it was nuts around 11), another one in late May or early June might fly.

Cavit8.. I dont think you are the bearded and chubby fellow Im ticked at. I would seriously like to know who that is. Because that guy really ticked me off.

Who was he?

Btw what the hell is CBN anyway?

I was thinking on my way home, im really not pleased with the whole cycling infrastructure we have in this city. Half the time it appears to me the funds go to paying a bunch of people to sit around and drink coffee. And today watching them in action..well I just wanted to take over.

Im thinking maybe im going to try and get the board of one of these groups and see that more is done.

Im sorry if this is becoming a rant.. I was part of the group trying to get the lanes in on dundas. I didnt go to as many meeting as I could have but I did happen to be around at the right times

I recall steve biko himself telling me.. "what do you guys need a bike lane for?"
That set me into a diatribe, which I picked apart the cycling committee. I guess after today not much has changed, since way back when.

Im also ticked off because I offered to organize and resurrect the recycled art auction which was always a
huge event, got lots of tv play, everyone had fun, it was a nice cap to the end of the bike week.

And what is with bike week now..? Week is singular.. Its become a 2 week event. I say why be so shy, make it bike to work month.

sorry about the rant
