I hope everyone is celebrating Bike to Work Week. Here in Flagstaff, Arizona, our local cycling association does a great job of really promoting this celebration of efficient commuting… http://flagstaffbiking.org .
Though I love the sentiment behind Bike to Work Week, I believe it would be even more effective to promote an efficiency transport to work week, promoting all things efficient including mopeds, motorcycles, electric cars, trains and buses. As a life long cyclist, I would be very happy to see more bikes everywhere, but I also realize that there are individuals who have different needs. In trying to improve our transportation capabilities, we need to reach out to a wide capacity of travel options in looking for solutions.
Cyclists should try to form coalitions and promote the wide spectrum of efficient transportation as an alternative to gas guzzling.
