After nearly three years of stalemate due to a court injunction, the San Francisco Bicycle Plan has its environmental impact report unanimously certified by the Planning Department and is adopted by the Municipal Transportation Agency.The San Francisco Bicycle Coalition turned out over two hundred supporters for the MTA meeting to speak in favor of the plan. Friends of Bikescape, Nancy Botkin and Mike Smith joined me and my partner Karen Franklin to discuss how the meeting went and how bike advocacy has changed over the last decade. Interspersed in this informal discussion are audio clips from the meeting.

Good to know you're listening Rev! Do you remember meeting in LA once?
Now we have a chance to become another Portland. A very expensive Portland, I guess...
Thought you folks might like this panel discussion on City bike policy... It's hosted by Steve Jones of the SF Bay Guardian.

Enjoy!
congratulations! I've been watching with interest and disbelief that a city as progressive as SF could be strangleholded by such a strange injunction. Now you can get on with being the great activists you naturally are. All the best!
