Dude, I actually *like* that plan...


I saw one of those now-ubiquitous political ads today - this is a shirt you can buy which is ostensibly making fun of Barack Obama, but which I think a lot of bike geeks might view as a bit of a compliment, regardless of their political leanings. I think it would have made more sense to put a pair or worn-out sneakers on there, or a person on a treadmill. Bikes are, um, actually a good part of a smart energy policy, dudes.

Unfortunately, Obama was not advocating biking. Instead, he was simply advocating keeping car tires inflated to proper PSI. Not sure why they show a bike pump, but I do use my bike pump to keep the my car tire pressure just right.

One small step in right direction, the bicycle commuter tax provision was part of the huge financial bailout package: http://www.bikeleague.org/
