Looks like the feds are working on Interstate Bikeways. 50,000 miles of open road!

That's nuts! My brother trained back in the day to compete in the olympics...didn't get very far with that...but dammit he tried! Anyway relevance is that he rode from Vancover to TJ and SD to Boston. I wonder what his view on this is. I'll have to call him and pass on what he says...bike highways...whatever works :thumbsup:

You can do that now. You don't need a bike highway.

I know that I can do it now. I just need about a month or so off and the blessing from the wife. Oh and a road/cross bike.
