Comments on: Mike Ross’ Excellent Biking Adventure http://www.bostonmagazine.com/boston_daily/2008/05/14/mike-ross-excellent-biking-adventure/ Just another www.bostonmagazine.com weblog Tue, 02 Dec 2008 06:53:18 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=wordpress-mu-1.2.1 By: Erica /boston_daily/2008/05/14/mike-ross-excellent-biking-adventure/#comment-7534 Erica Thu, 15 May 2008 16:20:55 +0000 /boston_daily/2008/05/14/mike-ross-excellent-biking-adventure/#comment-7534 Mike, Thanks for sharing your story. Your experiences shed some light on some of the challenges that face people who bike in Boston. I am hopeful that conditions will improve with this renewed interest in and focus on biking as a beneficial means of transportation. There are no emissions and biking is good for public health (including sanity...have you sat in a car in a traffic jam? then you know what I mean!). We should be doing what we can to incorporate biking into the culture. Mike,

Mike thank you for your support and leading by example. I believe that this City is taking the right steps to becoming a bike friendly City. Great job on reporting all the other issues you saw as you made your way to work! This great! Mike thank you for your support and leading by example.

I think it bodes well for cyclists in general. I've joked around with him about doing a ride, but he starts his ride - which is within his neighborhood - a little too early for my taste! If you're interested to hear more, he now has a bike czar - Nicole Freedman - working at City Hall (tel: 617-722-4300). In regard to Mike Ball’s question - I’m a big fan that the Mayor is peddling.

There is no reason this city should not be a biking city. I am looking forward to the changes Menino has promised. There is no reason this city should not be a biking city.

Do you ride with him? Do you or does he ride with constituents? Has he ever ridden to work? You gave Tom a bike to inspire him, didn’t you?
