“This growth is real,” said Wiley Norvell, a [lycra-clad?] spokesman for
Transportation Alternatives, the leading advocacy group for cyclists and
pedestrians in New York City. “It’s born out by what I see on the

investment in bicycling over the last several years. More and
better-designed bike lanes are producing more cyclists and more
first-time cyclists.”
