Present Day:
It's below freezing, we have a birthday party to attend that's 6 miles away. I ask my 7 year old: "Want to drive or bike?"
Daughter with zero hesitation: "Bike."
Four years ago:
Biking on our ice covered driveway with my 3 year old.
I am happily reaping what has been sown.

It canβt be about Bike Lanes. It needs to be about Complete Streets for all Vulnerable road users. Cars are killing pedestrians and recklessly driving into buildings. Speed bumps work to keep speeds down without needing police enforcement.
Bike Lanes = Traffic Calming

I'm guessing you're sharing this info in relation to Boston's Long Island recovery facility, and lack of a bridge.

A plowed bicycle path just before 6am in January
Not even 6am and the path was cleared.
