Great! "Multi-use" trail should be reclassified as "bike-use", which is really the case anymore. This will turn out just like the situation on the Schuylkill River "multi-use" trail where taking a pleasant walk means having to dodge Lance Armstrong wannabees acting like it's their personal racetrack. It's fun to be yelled at for being in their way or slowing them down.
Why is this just posted today, when the survey is to be mailed _before_ today? - Max

The bike rack design competition was posted right before, or after, it was due as well. Something in the communication kink is broken.
