Look at the ISSUE @ MACRO LEVEL

It is nice to kow that Cycling to work is an Good and better NON POLLUTING option.

Isnt it time city planners think of building cities with offices from ground to 2nd floor and residence upwards onwards. Somewhat like SPECIAL RESIDENTIAL ZONE. I hope this will alltogether curtail travelling.

BTW the cycles quoted are above 14,000 which is too high compared to Indians avg salary. Isnt it time economical cycles like Atlas, Hercules etc. modified propogated.

Instead of subsidising petro products if the Govt subsidises cycles i hope cycle utilisation will be on the 4th Gear.

the thing is it isnt built that way cos no one prefers flats in buildings on the main road where offices must be located.
