"Philadelphia should have these."
Which leads us to wonder why even countries in the so-called developing world can have civilized cycling infrastructures while here in Philadelphia, BIRTHPLACE OF FREEDOM, every small gain by cyclists is met by some heavy-handed, ham-fisted, draconian/Stalinist attempt to curtail cycling.
