In 35 years, haven't you EVER noticed that the anti-bike ranters at town meeting, city council meeting, community boards, etc have almost always been and continue to be OLDER than you are?
And after 35 years, they are amost all either still older than you or no longer with us.
After 35 years, have you noticed you are no longer one of the few nuts riding a bicycle, and MOST of the people riding bikes around you are YOUNGER than you are? And riding to work, market, school, with a couple of young children on the bike, etc? And often don't look like you? Don't have grey beards? Don't have beards?
Look, if you have burnt out and have lost hope, take a break.
But otherwise, get out there and help the NEW generation of advocates. They need your help.
