Thank Goodness there was not a government shutdown! I like to refer to it as an "earwhig". So I guess my bicycle ride from North Hills to South Hills to my "hypothetical job" is going to depend on me buying a new Titanium Bike for $3,500.00, so I can get there at the 20% pace that Mr. Holloway went 50 miles in. (was kool by the way) I don't think I can do in 1:39. But, will I have the same police escort and vehicular traffic cooperation that they did? Is that cost included in the $2 Billion (delta) Pa Budget? And, are the folks that commute to the state office buildings in Harrisburg, Pittsburgh, and Philly going to be "biking" it (daily)? Or is the Majestic Star going to become part of the Pittsburgh River Transit Fleet? I’m sure some of the infrastructure investment
