Yet going by their own numbers, that 2% of Torontonians commute by bicycle, we are short a minimum of 35 000 posts. There are no more parking meters to lock to and telephone poles are too fat for Ulocks and some cables. <BR/>Each 1% increase in the number of commuters requires another 25 000 posts.
