By the way no progressive liberal Democrat. If I had to describe myself. I'd say a moderate Independent with hard Libertarian leanings.

Maybe not the best. But pretty good and getting better. This is just Raleigh's. Durham and Cary have good systems also. I've never been on theirs though. Only Raleigh's.



I mean, we have a greenway system and funding to connect and build out the several greenways underway from South to north Mecklenburg.

But it's not on the same League as Minneapolis's dedicated bike lane infrastructure, highway & bike system.

U.S. Census Bureau shows the city is among the fastest-growing in the nation in (ITS SIZE)category.

From what I see. It's not in the same league as Raleigh/Wake either. Unless I'm missing something?

This was about incorporated cities. Raleigh is cities from 100,000 to 499,999. Cary & Fayetteville were in the report.

Oh I almost forgot about Cary.

Obviously Raleigh/Wake and the Triangle have a pretty extensive greenway/bike system. No need to like map of Durham's or RTP. Obviously the best system in N.C.

You are, but what's new

I forgot talking to you is like speaking to a Brick wall. Everythin is black and white. Charlotte is Unimpressive in everyway and The middle section stretching from Virginia to Fayettville is Gods gift to the world.
