Its about how medics in New Orleans were using bikes to get around post Katrina. With all the traffic jams and what not with evacuations leading up to hurricanes this year. One could have definately made better time on a bike than in a car. Will fat Americans ever learn?

Another day commuting to work on a bike. Bosses wife let me in on a good way to aviod the I-35 frontage road. Adds probably a mile or so on the ride, but after 13 or so miles, what's another mile?
