i'd be happy if he gave his fellow city employees some incentives to bike to work...  Shocked

i gotta say though, the dude really does ride... i have seen him many mornings on my way to work, chugging along on kelly drive; often times with some poor security guard lookin like he is going to die trying to keep up.  Grin

i would love to ride with the mayor but i'd end up really late for work....
