Riding a bike is a great idea. I’ve been to paris before and, it’s true, i’ve seen more bikes there in a day than i have my whole time in the US (of course, highly exaggerated).

Wouldn't it be nice to see people riding on bikes to go to work. I think portland residents do this. Meredith, I definitely think this as well.

But, because it gives people a little extra boost, I think more people will be willing to bike to work. In the article you posted, a guy mentioned that he rides his e-bike to his work that's 22 miles away, but would never be able to on a regular bike. I think more people who thinking biking to work is too much work should definitely look into these.

For those people who can't ride much because of health reasons or something, there's an e-bike. It's actually pretty cool. Here's an article about them, you should check it out. http://edition.cnn.com/2009/TECH/10/15/electric.bicycles/index.html I hope people do start riding bikes more.

Convenience isn't always healthy...just look at our obesity and heart attack rates, they're going up! So are our stress-levels. That's not very convenient. I think our country should start promoting exercise in a way that doesn't involve expensive gym memberships. Biking as transportation would be the perfect start.
