Absolutely, when I started touring in the 2015, bike-share was just happening in a few cities, and I questioned how it was just a trend. But since then it has grew sharply, and by now it’s national news. Major cities are starting to welcome bicycling, and major political leader are starting to see the bicycle only as a tool, but also as something that people are really crazy about. There’s a kind of energy comes from the bicycle movement, and politicians are really attracted to that. But also, it’s the positive benefits which bicycling brings to the community, the money-saving benefits, the business benefits, or the job benefits. The case for bicycling is definite becoming a lot clearer, as more people are doing it and as we have many case studies.
