This seems like an anti-bike lane message?

Tino said...

I read the message as more bikes not more car lanes.

It is an odd one. It could go both ways.

Tino said...

True. ;-)

The Christopher Hume link doesn't seem to work. Here's a shortened link to the same article:

Thank you. Both links fixed.

Hume seems to have something against cyclists though:
"In Toronto, as we all know, cyclists ride with their heads down and big chips on their shoulders. The two-wheelers have become a menace, especially to pedestrians and TTC passengers getting on or off a streetcar."

i think the initial message was "bikes need more lanes" but it seems that part of "need" has been peeled off.

Tino said...

Thank you, thank you. That totally makes sense.
Time to change the post title

Hume comes across as no bikes are allowed on the roads just cars type person ,, don't matter the star is a trash paper any way's

Tino said...

Steeker,

Oh, I was not expecting him to be all pro-bike
but at least he can appreciate the alternative.
IT IS POSSIBLE.

it's a shame to think that we could have had a pollution free world years ago with out the need for the present use of oil, but the rich don't want to give up thier power or control
