C'mon City of Chicago! Let's get all the powers-that-be behind this type of event and make it permanent! Mayor Daley, please go ride your bike in NYC through Central Park on any weekend -- or 10 AM to 3 PM weekdays! You'll see what utter joy can come of redirecting our city's asphalt infrastructure to human-powered, active transportation! Tap into Chicago's creative minds and hearts to maximize such a program!

This is what the Boulevard system was supposed to be-- a promenade for people and a connection to our parks, not an alternate expressway. With the aldermanic support, the organization partnerships and the massive community turnout --in LATE OCTOBER(?)-- why isn't the city of Chicago sponsoring this? C'mon Mayor Daley, fund and expand Sunday Parkways for next year! Great film about a fantastic event.
