And the one above is even worse, because the answer is obvious; anything done by any city to promote and improve the bicycling experience is good.

Just like that crazy disappearing cat in Alice in Wonderland, the trail map for the Cheshire Rail Trail in New Hampshire was quite invisible up until recently.
