College town (CSU) = more cyclist (at least until they graduate, get a job and buy cars)

Are you allowed to ride on downtown Main Street yet?

Fort Collins, CO is a very nice place to ride, but like most places, it has a ways to go. Especially the NO cycling on Main Street.

I have posted this before, but the best improvements for cyclist here in Honolulu, were not even intended for cyclist.

1. HI state was forced by the EPA to street sweep the sides of our highways, resulting from Clean Water Act violations. My flats have gone from 10-20 a year, down to about 2-3.

2. Potholes on the roads got so bad that it was causing serious suspension damage to cars and trucks. I was riding a full suspension mountain bike to reduce the repeated destruction of my rims. Motorist political pressure before the election 4 years ago caused both the mayor and governor to declare a "War on Potholes". Most of the roads have been repaved. So even if the repaving was for motorist, it has significantly benefited cyclist. But there is still one main highway near my home that still needs done.

The state still needs to revoke the mandatory bike lane law and pass a no distracted driver law.

The city needs to never steal bike registration funds from cyclist again; and rework Young Street, as approved and funded 4 years ago but cancelled by the current mayor.
