Data

I was at Harris Cyclery yesterday scoring a whole bunch of neat stuff. (Reminds me that, sometime during Bike Month, I've got to do a post on the importance of local bike shops.) I asked the very helpful Elton whether business was good. He said that the first seven customers through the door that morning all asked for commuter bikes. Last year it would be three or four in a month.

More confirmation that people are catching the self-propelled bug.

Then maybe the City of Newton will take a hint and put in bike lanes like they have in Watertown, Brookline, Cambridge, Somerville and so many other communities.
