I recall debating bicycle advocacy in the 1970's -- thought it was all figured out. I joined the League of American Wheelmen for just that reason:
MAKING BIKING BETTER
From the halls of Congress to the streets of your community, the League is working to make biking better for you. We are the voice of the nation’s 57 million bicyclists, promoting and protecting your right to ride. Our advocacy efforts span the spectrum, from lobbying Congress for our fair share of funding to giving local advocates the tools to win campaigns for bike-friendly policies in your town. Since 1880, we have been the hub of information that get the wheels spinning in communities nationwide.
Do we even need any of the trillions of dollars to be spent on new infrastructure like transportation? We already have bike lanes and MUPS. And I even see a "Share the Road" sign occasionally. I'd say everything is hunky dory.

Perhaps we can use this forum to discuss how much we've progressed in road access and safety in the last 140 years.
