@rockSlayer why do you assume "active travel" is only bikes? what about walkable communities? what if I like to roller skate? why can't we collaborate in each community on how we want to get around and what the rules are?

It's a well know fact that car companies (especially American ones) lobbied their governments to create car infrastructure. So why don't bike companies do the same for bike infrastructure?

@rockSlayer I see later in the thread that you've talked about thoughtful infrastructure, which I starred. Unfortunately, that wasn't in my notifications, which is what I replied to.
