I received this email today from the City of Minneapolis regarding public input to the plans of the city for bicycles; Bicycling Update Subscribers,
The City of Minneapolisis hosting an open house to solicit public input for a new Bicycle Master Plan. Unlike the last bicycle plan (which was approved in 2001), the 2008 plan will include goals, policies, and design guidance in addition to a map of future facilities. The plan will focus on the 6 E’s required to make a city bicycle friendly: Education, Enforcement, Engineering, Encouragement, Evaluation, and Equity. The plan will also include a prioritized list of projects and initiatives. Bicycle Master Plan Public Open House: Wednesday June 18, 2008 4:30 PM – 8:00 PM Room 319 City Hall Public ideas and suggestions will be solicited at this event. A brief presentation will be given at 5PM, 6PM, and 7PM. Members of the City of Minneapolis Bicycle Advisory Committee will be present to answer questions. If you have any questions please contact: Donald Pflaum, P.E., P.T.O.E. Transportation Planner 309 2nd Avenue South– Room 300 Minneapolis, MN 55401-2268 612-673-2129 
Erm....no, the photo was not part of the city email. I took the liberty of publishing that here for perspective. It seems that in the war between cars and bikes, cars usually win.
