This is one of the most important commercial streets in Milan, and the cyclepath I’m using has been the topic of harsh discussions since the beginning, with right wing politicians wanting to take it out. The main metro line of the city runs right below this street.

    If all those drivers were riding bikes, there would be bike traffic. But that would still be much better. Less pollution, global warming, expensive car repairs, stress of fuel supplies, risk of danger, health complications in the driver’s turned riders. I ride an euc that I charge with a small solar system. Thats still better than a gas car.
