#GoBikes or #NoBikes?

@WashingtonPost readers weigh in on the influx of bicycles in the region

  1. Responses were overwhelmingly in favor of cycling in D.C.
  2. @washingtonpost I'm in the #gobikes camp. The best way to get from A to B quickly, and greenly!
  3. @washingtonpost I'm definitely #GOBikes They're better for the environment and healthier for the District.
  4. @washingtonpost It has to be #GoBikes, because building more bike facilities is ultimately less expensive than building more roads.
  5. this cyclist says #GoBikes! #GoYoga too! MT @washingtonpost: The bicycle population is growing in DC. Which camp are U? wapo.st/GGE1Yr
  6. There were some detractors:
  7. Seems dangerous to ride in DC. "The bicycle population is growing in DC. Which camp are you in? #NoBikes or #GoBikes wapo.st/GGE1Yr"
  8. @washingtonpost bikes lead to fixed gears, which lead to hipsters, which lead to double decker bikes, which lead to gutter punks. #NoBikes
  9. @washingtonpost not in D.C. but I hate cyclist/ those idiots don't seem to realize right-of-way doen't matter if your dead. #NoBikes
