Remember the crazy guy from Colorado and his UN conspiracy theory and the evils of promoting bicycling? Well recent poles show him having 9% of the vote and if that wasn’t enough of a zing against being anti-bike, the GOP may be demoted to minor party status in Colorado until 2014 if he fails to get 10% of the vote.
Hopefully this will send a message to other politicians being anti-bike is not a good thing.
