VERY NICE BROCHURE! We could use something like that around North Texas.
One item – switch to lame humor mode now – when I read how bikes ought to be “operated near the right-hand side of the roadway.” The first thing that ran through my mind was; “Crimeny, EVERYTHING’S near the right-hand side of the road. Ditch, LH side of the road, even Okalahoma!” Andy has found something to make “practicable” seem a model of precision! Sweet. I’ll have to remember that one.
Seriously again, VERY nice brochure. With some work, it’d make a good starter template for thousands of other places.

I was *just* telling a friend about your “1-Mile Solution” and this PDF came along.
Having just taken my bike to work, I can assure you that you WILL arrive sweaty, physics be damned. It’s gonna be in excess of 100F here today. I rode at an average of 12mph and was pretty ripe. I brought a change of clothes and washed with soap. Today was important just to prove that my would-be treacherous route to work is in fact safe to bike, and should be fantastic in cooler weather.

And, yes, as I say in the booklet, on hot and humid days you’ll sweat doing just about anything.
Steve… I’m glad you like it. I do hope other localities will use it as a template.
