Nonsense. Now Jack May is just making things up.

I gave the statistics URL only a few weeks ago but since you only want to
lie, you are not worth my time to find it again.


You did, but you seem to have conveniently forgotten how thoroughly you
were debunked by the other participants in the thread.



I did not have time to deal with the thread but when I checked I saw the
exact same stupidity that is always apparent from bike and transit fanatics.

Its the usual the transit and bike fanatics are the bottom of society and
are incapable of figuring out anything or even using Google.

The data I use is from research experts that do know how to think and figure
out the truth.


Jack congrats!
You must be somehere on the speerhead of absolute ignorance.
That's a hard piece of success to achieve.

Your absoluteley fuzzy claims about cycle rides being almost as
en-intensive as car rides the last time were repulsed by simple
estimations of plausibility of these statements.
Energy for production and operation of bike is way lower than for cars.
The probably little more (I guess it's hardly more than 10%+, if at all
more is being consumed by cyclist) food (including production and
distribution) doesn't close the gap of an order of magnitude.

Believe it or not, the cities can be tamed, provided there's the
political will to do it. There's plenty of evidence of it, from
Curitiba (where public transportation was the key taming factor)

And all you have to do is get a lot of people to live on a few tens of
dollars per month to accept your horrible nightmare.

Ahhhh yeahhhh, of course: Copenhagen is a real horrific nightmare,
especially when compared to some car traffic boosting city. Guess the
same's valid for Amsterdam and other cities too?

Jack your'e not knowing what you're talking about.

Kind of like New York City. A nice to place to visit and then to
leave?


Hahaaaaaaaaaa... well there IS something fascinating in your "out of this
world" talking, I just have to figure out if it's a comedian or tragic
talent you have?


Well, having lived in NYC for 18 years, I don't see what you are crowing
about. Many people visit the place and then leave. Many who were born in
the area move to other parts of the world. So?

Ugh. NYC ain't a "wonderous" anything.

"Your" newspaper ran an article about where I live. They title it (as
least on the web site) a "haven".

Now THIS is wonderous and THIS is how to live:

Here's a hint. When people escape TO here, they are escaping FROM
cities.
