Hi all!

recently, while waiting at the bottom of seymour mountain for a friend who was stuck in traffic at surrey, we came up with a revolutionary idea of building an absolutely separate bike path, connecting the greater vancouver together and enabling its riders to commute all year round without using cars and public transportation.

turned out that the idea is not exactly revolutionary - there is a project proposal filed in Toronto, called Utopia.

so the question to everybody here - why such a project is still nonexistent in vancouver? due to my narrow-mindedness i cannot forsee the reasons not to build such a bike-highway here. not too many riders live in vancouver? untrue! they just stay home/drive cars because of the rain.

having built something similar (at least a roof covering the bike streets) will definitely return to vancouver its fully deserved status of the best city in the world, make its people happier and more independent of weather/traffic conditions, etc, etc..

please tell me why! otherwise - let's do it together!!!!

just, bike enthusiast
