Dear Mayor Nutter:
We know you are committed to making Philadelphia the "Greenest Sustainable City in America." Public Use Bicycling (bike sharing) is the most visible green initiative you can start. Everyone will recognize a shared bike and know our streets are less congested, pollution is reduced and our citizens are getting more exercise. Bike Sharing in a city readily makes a "Green Statement."
Now we need to ready our city for Bike Sharing. With just paint, you and your Department of Transportation can make new bicycle lanes and create bicycle boulevards, to make it easier for bicyclists and bike sharers to safely and quickly move through the streets of our city. The more cyclists on our streets, the safer it is for cyclists and motorists as each learns respect for each other. You can direct new economic stimulus funds into a program to make separated bike lanes on our larger more important streets such as the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, Broad Street, Market Street, Roosevelt Boulevard, Girard Avenue and Aramingo Avenue. That could be just the beginning.
Take this opportunity to quickly advance these ideas to make the greenest Public Use Bicycle Program for America's most sustainable city.

Thank you,
