Stuart,
I noticed the same lack of riders on the way in today. I ride to
work every day and the number of bikes on the road seemed
about normal, thus a lot of folks who do not normally ride did not
ride today, either.
An option to help our voices be heard here in the USA is to join
the AMA. While I do not agree with all of the policies of the
organization, I feel that in the long run it does more good than
harm, and thus I am a member and happily pay my dues so that
they can carry on with their work.
Just food for thought and something to consider if you are not
already a member.
