Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. I sincerely hope everyone is having a wonderful Thanksgiving and has much to be thankful for today. I am very thankful that IllinoisBicycleLaw.com has been a success beyond my wildest expectations.Illinois Bicyclists have a lot to be thankful for, here's a few things in particular to keep in mind:
- The Illinois legislature has demonstrated that they are willing to pass pro-bicycle legislation;
- The Chicago city council has also shown its willingness to protect bicyclists;
- Our current Governor, Pat Quinn, is a great friend to the bicycling community;
- There are more bike lanes, bike paths, and the G.I.T. (Grand Illinois Trail) is one year farther from a dream and a little closer to a reality; and
- There are more bicyclists in Illinois than ever before who have created one of the best cycling communities in the country.
