Thanks. I was the author of that letter. I doubt that it will change the minds and behaviors of those who are so actively against cyclists there. I think that they are in the minority, but that is cold comfort. I just encourage everybody I can to ride out here. It's the best riding around.

I also found this letter trying to get a grip on the signs and the nastiness.
