    LOL ‘Cities making the switch more possible than ever’. Maybe in Europe but definitely not US or Canada.

      Jokes aside, Fake Kingston has been making good stride in active and public transportation. This will make it more resilient than other cities of similar size.

      Yeah they’re illegal on the roads where I am, and there are no sidewalks or bike lanes. Also, we get some terrible weather in the winter, it would be really difficult to use year-round.

      From a few youtube source, some US city is definitely going there. I think Carmel city, Indiana is considered a bike friendly city, and i think NYC and Seattle get a mention too.
