I know Baltimore  is going to get the bronze soon, so keep up all your excellent work! I have attached feedback that was compiled from the application review. You will find a few significant measures that should be taken to improve the community&rsquo;s bicycle friendliness in addition to program and policy measures in each of the Five E&rsquo;s. The BFC application is broad and no one right or wrong answer will put a community over the edge either way. In our experience, it takes a breadth of programs across each category to make a truly Bicycle Friendly Community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Each question of the BFC application is designed to point the community to a good measure for improving cycling.
