Times New Roamin’

By David Topping

The New York Times has gotten around to writing about Igor Kenk; an article by Ian Austen will appear on page A7 in Friday’s paper, and at 1100+ words, it’s apparently the longest article written about Toronto in the Times since that boring travel one in May. We’re gonna be world-famous! [via Digg.]

    The arrest has provoked an outpouring of anger and publicity in a city renowned as one of the most bicycle-friendly places in the world.

    Really? Are we? Perhaps I should be more grateful?

    I left a similar message (albeit for the wrong article) about that.
    If that reputation’s true, then it’s a pretty sad statement for the state of biking in “the world.”

    I didn’t feel like I was in a bicycle-friendly city when a City of Toronto cube van tried to run over me today, that’s all. Today probably wasn’t the best day for me to read that particular paragraph.
