If you want to build Dutch bike paths all over my city then go for it. Like I said, biking is one of my families favorite leisure activities and we would use them all the time.

Yay for bike paths! Especially if it keeps bikes out of the street.




Your attitude is pretty revealing. All those people on bikes need to be "kept off the street" when doing their "leisure activity." There's no more car-centric way to make that statement. It's as though the possibility of people going places they need to be while not in a car doesn't even cross your mind.


I don’t see how you could possibly share the road between bike and car safely without clear separation.


Biking is a means of transportation first and a leisure activity distant second.
