Making America into Amsterdam

I was astounded to learn that "almost ALL trail users in almost all areas use a car to haul their bike to the trail." Seriously, some people need to learn that life exists outside their own neighborhood, and that not all areas of the country are exactly the same, so they don't make statements that generalize based on their own limited experiences. Certainly people from Silicon Valley and the Bay Area, that have never experienced the eastern U.S., experience culture shock when they go back east, or to the deep south. Here's a link to survey data from 20 trails in Pennsylvania and New Jersey: https://www.railstotrails.org/resour...in al_Rev.pdf "Purpose of Trail Use: Health 56% Recreation 38% Training 3% Other 2% Commuting 1%" That's not "my own neighborhood." That's the next state over, and the one past that. 20 trails. Ten years of surveys. Why no comment on the data, Stephen? Joerg? -- - Frank Krygowski |
