Here’s some ammo to toss at the anti-bikers. (See earlier posting for the latest kerfuffel in New York City.)
Two pieces of research to consider:
One finds that increased biking, by reducing obesity and perhaps depression, could save the economy $6-million annually. All right.
Next comes a study that shows that helmet laws reduce youth cycling. Wait, you say, this isn’t good. Well, maybe. But Wall Street Blogger Justin Lahard says all the enemies of cycling need to do when trying to capture the transportation regulators is to insist on more safety measures.
Now you’re talking.
