“Bike There” feature on Google Maps.

There’s this petition circulating online that asks google maps to add a “bike there” feature to their current options. Having spent more time than I care to recall on roads that I didn’t know were entirely unsuitable to bicycling until I was clinging to their narrow, narrow shoulders, I am in support of this idea. Anything that makes bicycling seem like a more feasible transportation option for regular folks is a plus in my book.

If you think of yourself as pro-bicycling but you haven’t actually put foot to pedal since college (no one in particular! Just sayin…), sign your name.  You can feel good about it all week.
