Future directions for our transportation networks

Excerpt from the Washington Post's "Dear Dr. Gridlock:"

To maximize economic and quality-of-life benefits for the region, transportation investments over the next couple of decades, except for road maintenance, should be devoted only to building efficient and effective transit and pedestrian/bicycle networks.

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
