Pretty sweet. Way to go MassBike, Livable Streets, MBTA, and everyone else who was part of making these happen. Lets hope for many more.

These things are awesome! Instead of go on and on about them I will let the pictures and video do the talking.

So two things, one I got an email saying the new bike cages at Alewife will not be open till 10am on Thursday and that anyone who gets there before then will be given a special bicycle Charlie card (so thats still good).

It would seem that people have a hard time with me wanting to keep the pressure on the MBTA. I was in no way saying that opening up the cages was bad, or that they are bad for doing it. I was trying to point out that we should pack the things the first day so we get good press coverage which will convince anyone at the head of the MBTA that isn’t already convinced that these sort of improvements are wanted, and needed.

Lets pack the cages and show the MBTA that more bike infrastructure means more business for the T!

You may now return to your regularly scheduled snarkyness.
