I would like to reassure small businesses that they could benefit greatly. I bike all over the city, but find I am naturally drawn to areas with bike lanes that offer convenience and access. These tend to be the areas where I will also park my bike and spend some cash. I am loften park on 2nd ave in the E Village or 6th Ave in midtown. Now it will mean I am doing the same thing on Bleeker or Prince rather than Houston. Having not yey attended any of these meetings, my research suggests the business community opposes bike lanes.

CB2, congratulations and please do not give up the fight on Houston Street either.
