President-elect Barack Obama photographed in Chicago this past June:
I wonder if Joe the Car Driver over there has any idea who's riding next to him?
I'd love to see Obama cycling across to D.C. to meet with reporters or ambassadors or whatnot. In the midst of him carrying through major legislation to combat global warming and amp up the auto industry as part of a full-scale national commitment to alternative energy, he can continue his habit of choosing a bike as his transportation of choice.
That's what I call role-modeling.
And I'd love to see the Secret Service be obliged to get their own two-wheeled rides.

If the secret service members protecting me couldn't keep up on foot, I'm not so sure I'd want them on my protection detail :P
