I ran across this article today:

http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcont...1.2682bad.html

I'm conflicted about it. First, the fact that Dallas, which I understand is not a terribly bike-friendly place, is putting bike racks on their busses is a Good Thing.

BUT (you knew that was coming) the tone of the article implies to me that only poor folk (racial overtones) would possibly use either busses or bikes.

Am I being over-sensitive, do I need a chill pill or is that writer just clueless? What is it with the smug assumption that riding a bike to work means you are poor? Some people just don't like driving! Is that so hard to understand?

Um, I'll take that chill pill, now, thanks.

Any other takes on this?
