Some good reading...

There are two blogs of note with some cycling content you should be read. The first is Orcinus, a left-of-center site that offers some good reading. Today, there's a post about cycling and while it's straightforward, the comments are more interesting.

I love this quote: "Well, at least we've debunked one tired liberal nostrum: turns out that education doesn't work -- at least, not for the anti-bicycle crowd posting here today."

Orcinus links to this Seattle Post-Intelligencer comment site, and to horsesass.org.

Now, I know that some of you over toward the Republican end of the political spectrum, like Fritz and Kiril, won't find much to your liking on these sites. But go ahead and read the comments! It should give us writing fodder for weeks!

Meanwhile, I'm mining the Thunderhead Alliance Benchmark report for good information and statistics, if only as a way to refute some of this tiresome 'cyclists don't pay their fair share' bullshit.

Now get out of there! Go read this stuff!
