So here’s a great idea. Let’s give people some help getting comfortable using their bike as a means of transportation. A couple of implementations of this idea are under way:

• Over at Southeast Uplift, they’ve started a “Bike Buddy” mentoring program. Read the details at BikePortland.org.
• The BTA has scheduled a new round of their workshops on bike commuting, a great primer.

Maybe I should start a support group for new Streetcar riders :-)
