septa strike=more bikes

This is from phrequency:

Awesome upshot of the SEPTA strike, which thus far has been about as anti-Good Motherfucking News as you can get: Based on counts conducted by the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia yesterday, Day Two of the SEPTA strike saw a 38% increase in bicyclists during rush hour. What! That’s awesome! And there’s more: There was also a 27% increase in the number of women bicycling during the strike. Which means that, even if the math (or armpits) is fuzzy, there is a great likelihood that there are more cute girls on bicycles in the City of Philadelphia now than in any time period since the 1930s. And if there’s a person in the world that doesn’t like a cute girl on bicycle, well, we don’t wanna know them. Hopefully, this will make attendance at this weekend’s Philly Tweed Ride go through the roof. A new day! A new way!

Sorry this is boring lately. Let's do the tweed ride!
