Editor's Statement

By Brad Quartuccio

In describing Danny Chew’s drive in The Million Mile Man, Steevo nailed it. “[Cycling] lets an individual pursue an individual goal.” The goals differ wildly between us; to some it is a distant mileage goal that takes a lifetime of pursuit. Others find the hill on the way to work challenge enough. Each day countless thousands of cyclists pedal forth with individual goals in mind, either centered on the ride itself or the destination in the distance.

Through the work of cycling advocates, achieving these goals is becoming that much easier. In the realm of cycling for transportation, change is sweeping across the land faster than ever before. Cities and towns are being transformed into a more bikeable landscape in ways some advocates could have only dreamed of a few short years ago. By the same token, the explosion of community and cooperative bike shops across the country is nothing short of amazing. New cyclists are being created daily, and this bodes well for the future of us all.

Pursue your cycling goal.
