My recollections are that while Boulder had constructed a physical system to facilitate city-wide bike use with minimal automobile encounters, except for the Boulder Creek corridor out to the University and the north-south downtown/univ routes, the rest of the system was sparsely used, and the encounters between cyclists and motorists were nasty, brutish, and short. What's changed?

And take note that even though we've achieved the platinum level we know we still have a long way to go.
