And as a business owner that bikes, I don't even have a rack outside of the building I own as I doubt none of the employees or clients would ever use them.
I don't think more bike racks are a bad thing. My favorite coffee shop I ride to has one and I wish the brewery I like had one. But any government be it local, state or federal shouldn't be involved in making it happen.
Interesting. As I read the o.p. I did not hear any wish for government overreach in their rant. But you did. And that is why we are #doomed. We know what is the right thing but we don't want enforcement. No enforcement (government) = anarchy. I'm not sure what is so wrong with a little supervision. We need it. We are #doomed without it.
