I was interviewed for this article and they opted to leave out a few key points in order to construct their "trend piece".

Ahem:

1. I've been riding a bike for seven years, in sf and nyc, so it ain't just a new trend...at least not for this gal.

2. There is a reason that my primary intention for riding a bike in this city isn't to be green, and the reason is: it's not like my alternative is a Hummer. Most commuters in this city are inherently green (subway, on foot). Let's get people in the burbs riding bikes. Then *they* can be sanctimonious.

Having said that, I will totally cop to texting while I ride. Sorry guys. I'll try harder.
