Arlington Just Hates Bicycles

|

A FrontBurnervian pointed me to this Bud Kennedy column from the weekend, which I don’t know how I missed because I don’t miss many Bud Kennedy columns (note to columnists working for the paper of record in Dallas: This is how you write a metro column).

It seems that there is this giant push in Arlington to ban – ban – bicycles. The voters of Arlington have already opted to turn down mass transit, but now bicycles? Perhaps next, we can ban walking outdoors, and force people to purchase Jazzy scooters, eventually rendering the whole of Arlington something like this.

So someone who is in Arlington, tell me: What is up with all this?
