this is how chicago MIGHT just become one of the most bike-awesome cities in the country in the next 5 years...or 7 years...okay let's face it...some day long in the future.
but hey, at least they're trying.i was surprised by the emphasis on bike messengers too.

a video just aired on local TV condemning Alleycats as dangerous, illegal, and irresponsible hooliganry.
they suggest that the pigs should try and break up the next (and all forthcoming) alleycats...
this could get bad.

sweet. now, if only people would take this shit seriously, we'd be golden.Quoted: Bike-riding Daley provides 'Chicago way salutes' to offending drivers
Posted by Gary Washburn at 6:30 p.m.
Chicago bicyclists, Mayor Daley knows your pain.
The mayor introduced an ordinance Wednesday that would slap fines ranging from $150 to $500 on motorists who turn left or right in front of someone on a bicycle; pass with less than three feet of space between car and bike; and open a vehicle door into the path of a cyclist.
Daley, an avid rider, said he personally has been involved in unhappy encounters with motorists, providing them with "a few choice words" and "salutes" that he said were delivered "in the Chicago way."

You must be Latarian Huck-a-hatchet Jackson's friend before you can comment on this Fave.Yeah this is pie in the sky crap here-"500-mile bikeway network"? The easiest thing in this list involves "training police officers for enforcement", ie. instructing them to fine our ass every chance they get...
mayor daley's public sympathy plans, pathetic and manipulative as they may be, nonetheless have had some perks for the people, even if only accidental. i figure that's the most to hope for.
