Cycling and the Northeast blackout

I saw all the colossal traffic snarls on CNN, etc, during the
power blackout in the Northeast U.S. today.

Did anyone manage to luck out by biking, without any delays,
while their counterparts were stuck in cars? I wonder whether
bikes would have been a valuable commodity or whether they
would have been snagged by the gridlock, too.

I wonder whether bikes would have been a valuable commodity...

I wasn't there today but I've been in similar situations. I'd
say a bicycle is almost always a good thing to have in one of
your basic mass urban exodus scenarios.

They should be part every civilian's Homeland Security survival plan.

You'll have to ask Fabrizio about that. I heard you've gotta know
somebody to get one.

Well, I know Tyler Hamilton's sister.

Wow, in that case, Fab might offer you two of 'em for her!

I was figuring to trade you her email address for a Cervélo.
