“If we can build a successful city for children, we will have a successful city for all people.” - Enrique Peñalosa Kids are the future. And parents who bring their children along on their bicycles, are super heroes. Another quote (from the same guy) that is worth reflecting on: “We cannot continue to deceive ourselves thinking that to paint a little line on a road is a bike way. A bicycle way that is not safe for an 8-year old is not a bicycle way.“ Do you agree? While many politicians and planners are still debating, hesitating, and compromising, there are more and more decision makers out there, not least in car-loving America, who are adapting the 8-80 principle: trying to create bicycle infrastructure for the 8 to 80 year old. Here’s an inspiring read on that (with lots of pictures!). -- source link
