Commuting by bike down 24%

Jim Herd of San Francisco Citizen relays a scoop on bike commuting from a post on Reddit: it's down 24% since 2015. In part this is probably after the advent of other transportation "modes," like scooters, Uber, and Lyft.

This may also be why the MTA no longer issues a credible annual bicycle count report. Instead, they now provide an electronic document dump that obscures the reality illustrated above by Herd's chart.

Freedom From Religion Foundation

...Keep in mind this isn’t an “atheist club” for Congress. This is just a group dedicated to promoting reason-based public policy, keeping church and state separate, opposing discrimination against non-religious people, and championing freedom of thought around the world. In other words, there’s no reason anyone should be against this, including religious politicians. That won’t stop the complaints, but it also means the number will surely grow, especially in a future administration where evidence and science aren’t dirty words.
