John, I wouldn't let anyone hold you back from being political.
If ever there was a political bike list, this is it. No one has ever
been able to stop any of the rest of us from being political.
Politics is nothing more than an exercise in the distribution of
power--the who, what, when & where of it.
Demanding one's place in the transportation system is an inherently
political act. Demanding to get from point A to point B by the mode
of one's choosing--as long as it is peaceful--is heavy-duty
political. That is pretty much what drives (so to speak) this list.
You can bet that when it comes to defending that right, I'm going to speak up.
If it takes electing better politicians to help get us there, I'd say
go for it.
So I wouldn't be in the least bit shy about being political if I were you.

a politically community base effort and movement to bring the
current building of public bicycle right aways and bike paths to
this metropolitan region , I can remember the day when the East
Isthmus bike path did not exist and there was only a gravel fire
lane adjacent to the R&R.....you must be fairly new here..Hey??
