There is quite some criticism towards the results as the data leaves out relevant items such as whether there is a sidewalk or not… come on, get your hiking boots on and don’t forget the helmet ;-)

Seems like people are waking up to leave the car at home sometimes. San Francisco already has a crital mass monthly bike ride, but with the hills we are still waiting to see something like the Tuesday night skating night in Frankfurt, the largest European skate night gathering with up to 5,000 people.
