This animosity that I sense between those that choose to ride bikes and those who drive seems like a piece is missing. I'm guessing that both parties (as far as these posts are concerned) need to get to know one another a bit more. It's easy to formulate opinions based upon a few anecdotes but get to know each other and I'm guessing that we will, generally, see eye-to-eye on so many things.

Does bike-centric project X deserve more attention than auto-centric project Y? Does project B in SE warrant more attention than project C in NW?

Just some thoughts to reflect upon.
