Despite report, it’s hard to find fat on area bike paths

Meanwhile, let’s hear what the bike enthusiasts have to say for themselves. Eric Weis, trail program coordinator for the East Coast Greenway Alliance, a group spearheading development of a 2,900-mile trail connecting cities from Maine to Florida for cyclists and walkers, said, “I would love to be pandered to. Who do I talk to about that?”
…
On a serious note, Tomasso, a fitness instructor, divided the report’s $4.8-million figure by the state’s 1-million population to derive a per-person cost of $4.80. “Because anyone can run, walk or ride on the extensive greenway system in Rhode Island, it’s the best deal in town,” she wrote. “Where else could one receive a lifetime membership to a fitness facility … for $4.80? In addition, that fee provides unlimited access to family entertainment, local flora and fauna, and tours of Rhode Island’s auspicious place in American history.”
Come to think of it, she has a point. See you on the bike path.
