yep, like I said....VC oppose the use of bike facilties. mandatory use IS something worth fighting against. Maybe the VC consider "as far right as practicable EXCEPT" language mandatory use laws.

And bike infrastructure has been PROVEN, in cities AROUND THE GLOBE, to BOTH: 1) increase cyclists and 2) increase cyclist safety. There's no dupe, except in your slant against bike infrastructure, kalirego.
