The banana is ignored because banana is monkey food and the monkeys
are ignored. Same thing as with the bikes.

Good, good stuff. It's the machine raging against the individual. I
try to ride a bicycle and everytime I bump into the reality... The
reality is the cars control road, and I'm just an "accident" there, or
an accident waiting to happen, if you will. What can I do about it?
Nothing, stay in my cage and punch keys until I get my message across
to other monkeys.
We accept everything new as good. If a new, bigger SUV comes out in
2010, we go rushing for it. Nevermind all the news of a global
environmental crisis...
The question is, HOW DO WE PUT THE HUNGRY LION IN THE CAGE and feed
him bananas? ;)

The Dutch seems to be wiser than both Islam and Christianity.
They simply ride bikes and enjoy the outdoors, and don't get involved
in too many wars, other than the one in Afghanistan, and that's
because their elites feel committed to American elites in trying to
save the West. But America is sinking the West slowly with so many
wars and excessive pollution.

Sure, but the stupid egyptians did a hell of a lot more than that and survived fine.

They had too much space to ruin it.
Now we have 6.5 billion and growing --with no place to go-- and with
the technology to destroy everything. I'm sure one SUV can cause more
damage than 100 Egyptians shitting and farting.

I don't think most American drivers would pass the IQ test given to
monkeys. Not necessarily but birth, but by dumbing down.

No, my city is NOT among them. It must be among the bottom 10 then
because I don't think there could a city more hostile to cyclists.
Let's then visit briefly those cities where the cyclists are
considered people, not monkeys. Do the monkeys have any value? Not
unless they buy an SUV. Anyway, without further ado...
(I quote)
With fuel costs soaring and environmental conservation in vogue, the
bicycle is making a comeback in many cities, becoming a major part of
urban transportation plans.
Men's Web site AskMen.com has come up with a list of the world's top
most bicycle-friendly cities.
1. Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Amsterdam's comes top when it comes to bicycle-friendly cities and
nearly 40 percent of all commutes in Amsterdam are done by bicycle.
Public bikes are available to rent and plans to construct a massive
bike parking structure at the city's main train station are underway.
2. Copenhagen, Denmark
About 32 percent of Copenhagen residents are biking to work on a
regular basis. The city's pro-bike culture allows you to rent a public
bike for free for just a deposit.
3. Bogota, Colombia
While government programs for bike riding aren't as robust as those in
Europe or America, Bogota has a demographic advantage that makes it a
bicycle-friendly city — only 13 percent of residents own cars, which
makes bicycles a necessity. In fact, once a week, the city closes over
70 miles of streets to vehicle traffic in favor of bicycle riders,
joggers, skaters and others.
4. Curitiba, Brazil
Bicycle integration is at the core of the well-planned Curitiba. The
city has been pushing cycling as the go-to mode of transportation for
more than 40 years and the result has been the ubiquity of bike lanes.
A vibrant bike-oriented activist community exists to promote bicycle
riding as an alternative to auto congestion.
5. Montreal
Two years ago, Montreal embarked on a $134 million plan to revamp the
city's bike trails and create a more bicycle-friendly atmosphere. The
plan included incorporating bicycle-friendly lock points into standard
parking meters. The city currently boasts 2,400 miles of trails with
plans to expand. Montreal also has the first urban bike-share
infrastructure in North America, the Bixi program.
6. Portland, Ore.
Portland has created bicycle paths that connect the urban
neighborhoods so a rider can bypass auto commuting altogether. The
city also offers low-cost commuter bicycles to the city's less wealthy
residents which come complete with a helmet, lock, pump, maps, and
rain gear. With over 260 miles of trails and paths, Portland achieves
a commuter rate of nearly 9 percent.
7. Basel, Switzerland
Basel features street lanes specifically geared toward bicycle riders
and include left-hand turn lanes that are unique to riders. Basel also
supports a robust network of bike-rental programs that allow tourists
and residents alike to ride.
8. Barcelona, Spain
Among the now-standard bike lanes, signals and maps that are
ubiquitous in major European cities, Barcelona also has created a
green ring that runs the perimeter of the urban core. This bike path
is peppered with 100 different bike stations as part of Barcelona's
bike-sharing program, allowing riders to rent and drop off at
different locations.
9. Beijing
As in most developing countries, the car is on the rise, but biking is
still the best way to get around Beijing as car traffic is so slow and
congested. Air quality has been a major issue with the promotion of
bicycle riding as a prominent policy push.
10. Trondheim, Norway
One of the biggest drawbacks to riding a bicycle has to be pedaling
uphill so Trondheim has come up with a novel solution to riding uphill
— bicycle lifts that act like ski tows and allow the rider to glide up
a hill without having to pedal.

Davis California. At various times
