You guys have a very liberal bike policy on light rail that I envy. Our lightrail will not allow bikes during rush hour unless it's a folding bike. Our bus story is totally different.
I read once that Jersey City has the most bus usage in the entire USA! If it's not, this city is certainly one of the top 5 because every avenue has a one or three bus lines that go right through. Unfortunately, not a single bus line has a bike rack which is incredible.
