General Discussion / Southern NV, Hiway 6

I rode across Route 6 West to East. It seemsed like a great route to me.

It was a long time between stops but we were able to manage it and light traffic.

Here is the article on Bike Portland. Read the AC articles and then read Jonathan's piece too. Then let us know what you think.

Here is the Link to Bike Portland.

General Discussion / Portland's Agony

I'd love to hear what people have to say about the article by John Schubert and the retort by Roger Geller.

While generally I consider myself a vehicular cyclist and feel like I understand John's arguments - after having seen the bike culture and energy in Portland and hearing the hard-to-argue-with data, I take the side of Geller and I would encourage John to visit Portland. It is truly incredible what is happening in Portland and I'm so happy that I live close enough to be able to ride there once in a while. I believe the numbers will continue to grow in favor of cycling and I'd bet the crash data continues to show a safer and more comfortable place to bike for everyone.
