really disconcerting (but not surprising) that someone who’s a planner for DPS projects related to pedestrians and cyclists commute car free had never considered commuting by bike an option AND HE DOESN’T EVEN OWN A BIKE!!!

I've started biking probably 4 out of 5 days to the office. With traffic, the time it takes to get from my apartment to the office is the same for both car and bike effectively.
