They COUNTED 350,000 cyclists during which last year there were 60,000 vehicles with an estimate of 25% using the park as a bypass. Let& #39;s generously assume 4 people per car.

That& #39;s 180,000 people arriving in the park by car vs 350,000 people year arriving by bike.

Why wouldn& #39;t you open your business to service that 100% increase in visitor traffic?

Instead, Stanley Park businesses are threatening to go to court ... to reduce their potential audience?

Are you kidding me?
The thing that& #39;s overlooked in all the rhetoric here is that more people are biking to the park -- and they include many people who wouldn& #39;t ride there before! Families and seniors. Novice cyclists.

The park is more park-like right now and "servicing" more people than before!
So why is there a such a loud crowd complaining? And why would they oppose opening a single vehicle lane to further accommodate those who can& #39;t walk/roll/bike there?

There seems to be no use of logic here, or even good business sense.

Confounding.
