On Wednesday evening, the ANC voted an overwhelming (and near unanimous) YES to sending a letter to DDOT providing guidance and compromise principles for improvements to a section of the Palisades Trolley Trail. A huge thanks to the ANC!

After you ride a bike during rush hour traffic, it's hard to see the car as a vehicle of freedom.
ER docs see far more incidences of head trauma sustained in car crashes than they do from people riding bikes, yet I've never heard of a single one suggesting people should wear car helmets.
Riding a bike is only as dangerous as belligerent/distracted drivers choose to make it. https://twitter.com/bikesnobnyc/status/1192456624121745408
