Wikipedia doesn't appear to agree with me, however. Beta 5.0: Yay!

Reduced fuel consumption, less air pollution, better health, etc. And genetics are on my side. Since my Grandfather was 100% Dutch and moved here from Den Haag in the early 1900's it should be in my blood, right? I have noticed a lot more people biking along my route to work in the past few weeks. Maybe it will catch on here. I know we have too many cars for the streets in our small part of Florida on most days. Bikes and public transportation could help a lot if we could shift our cultural mindset, create a convenient transportation system, and move our families closer to the places we need to be on a daily basis. When I spent a few weeks in The Netherlands for business and looking up family I never felt inconvenienced by not having a car. I could always get to the places I wanted to be easily and relatively quickly. Maybe the rising fuel prices will help push that trend here. Not likely in the near future but you can always hope, do your part, and maybe others will follow your example. Well, Al is right, biking in to work does have it’s benefits.
