“In the past, the city’s philosophy has been that the communities that already bike the most deserve the most resources. That just perpetuates a vicious cycle where cycling grows fast in some neighborhood and not others. Biking leads to better physical and mental health, safer streets, more connected communities, and support for local businesses. Black communities are the ones that need those benefits the most.” (via Streetsblog Chicago)
