Watch: City Inside/Out takes on the Pronto buyout debate

Seattle Channel's excellent City Inside/Out show took on the Pronto Cycle Share situation Friday, including an interview with yours truly and a panel with SDOT Active Transportation Chief Nicole Freedman, Councilmember Mike O'Brien, Rainier Valley Greenways and Rainier Riders leader Phyllis Porter and persistently anti-bike Fremont business leader Suzie Burke.

The episode begins with a good five-minute recap to catch viewers up on how we got here, followed by the discussion. Viewers are then asked to take this one-question poll.

In previous stories, we've reported about how Pronto ended up in this do-or-die situation in front of the Council and how the system can flourish in our city.

City Inside/Out quotes me saying, "We have one good bike lane in all of downtown, that's not a bike-friendly city." To illustrate that point, I'm reposting a graphic showing how the planned-but-delayed Center City Bike Network will also activate Pronto's network. But this can only happen if we take action. No more waiting. It's time.
