Delivering the goods: Toronto's clogged streets

Toronto's mayor Rob Ford hasn't done much for cyclists but that shouldn't stop cyclists from lending the beleaguered mayor a helping hand. Ford's campaign to reduce traffic congestion by taking on cyclists and eliminating transit projects hasn't had any success so a few new ideas -- and a bit of old fashioned ingenuity -- should be welcome.
