Author and blogger,
Taras Grescoe, reminded me of a wonderful article from a couple of years ago in the blog
90042 on The Great California Cycleway. Hard to imagine that at one time we had a dedicated bicycle pathway (and an elevated one!!) that ran through our fair city. It was an ambitious project back then, and with today's rise of bicycle advocacy, CicLAvia, and the incorporation of cycling as part of the overall sustainable transportation strategy I can't help but think what could have been if things were built around this. This is a fun read and be sure to click on the accompanying interactive
map.
