As a bicycle commuter and recreational cyclist I find this level of ignorance from a leader appalling. In San Diego we don't have snow, or barely even rain, but we do contend with widespread ignorance and contempt for bicyclists. Yesterday, I received this in a message from the San Diego Bicycle Coalition:<br /><br />*Inform Congressman Hunter about Bicycles as a Form of Transportation*<br /><br />Duncan Hunter. <br />Know anyone in Congressman Hunter's district? Want to make a useful phone call today? Call a friend, call two friends, and have them call Congressman Hunter's district office: 619.448.5201<br /><br /><br />Here's what he has to say about bikes in a recent interview...<br /><br />SB: Are you interested in looking for ways of getting people out of their cars and into other modes of transportation?<br /><br />DH: Sure - where it's feasible. In San Diego, it's not feasible. San Diego's one of those places where a lot of people live who work in the more expensive places in Southern California and they can't afford to live there. They have to drive in - and in my district, everybody works everywhere. So no, it's not one of my priorities at all to get people out of their cars. I like my car.<br /><br />SB: I was just in an EPW Committee hearing and there was some talk about the fact that some small amount of money in the reauthorization historically gets used for things like bike trails. Some people think that's waste; some people think biking is a mode of transportation. What do you think?<br /><br />DH: I don't think biking should fall under the federal purview of what the Transportation Committee is there for. If a state wants to do it, or local municipality, they can do whatever they want to. But no, because then you have us mandating bike paths, which you don't want either.<br /><br />SB: But you're OK with mandating highways?<br /><br />DH: Absolutely, yeah. Because that's in the constitution. I don't see riding a bike the same as driving a car or flying an airplane.<br /><br />SB: How is it different?<br /><br />DH: I think it's more of a recreational thing. That's my opinion.<br /><br />http://dc.streetsblog.org/2011/01/27/ca-rep-hunter-roads-constitutionally-mandated-transit-must-pay-for-itself/ <br /><br />Read the whole interview for yourself, then get on the phone and call!!! <br />619.448.5201. Bikes are transportation, just the same as driving or flying.davecyclenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-81407741829860531842011-02-01T15:20:54.892-05:002011-02-01T15:20:54.892-05:00The Gran Fondo NY website sucks.
