From the article: "the House voted 363-62 and the Senate voted 98-2"

This nearly makes me weep with joy and hope.

Go Dave Wiens! Shaping up to be a great leader of IMBA.

Also great news is that people can still ride bikes in Bethel, ME. Yup, some citizens and one selectman seriously wanted to ban bikes.

BETHEL — Selectmen voted 4-1 Monday not to send a citizen-initiated ordinance to ban bikes on streets with no bike lanes to the Ordinance Review Committee.

I believe it was signed on the 13th or 14th.
