See what the bike gods did to you!

    Mayor Ford of Toronto has long been noted for his surly (pun intended) attitude towards cyclists, and his alleged affection for illegal refreshments.  He has said that cycling is only for latte sipping urban elite, not middle class workers.   He has applauded and spent $250K for the removal of bike lanes while other municipalities install more.  He vehemently opposed the installation of cycling facility in the city center which would convert some covered parking into enclosed bike parking with changing rooms and public showers.

"What I compare bike lanes to is swimming with the sharks. Sooner or later you're going to get bitten... Roads are built for buses, cars, and trucks, not for people on bikes. My heart bleeds for them when I hear someone gets killed, but it's their own fault at the end of the day."

      Well, he seems to be on the verge of gittin his come-up-ens.  The police have made public a file and extensive investigation of the Mayor's fun filled activities and I don't think we will have that fat assed bully pushing cyclists around much longer.  Seems latte sippin' urbanites might be more acceptable than coke sniffin' politicians.  Didn't this happen in Washington once?  Can't seem to remember his name...looking forward to forgetting about Ford.
