I think I might start doing projects like this around parts of Jax that really need it. Any ideas on some real trouble spots for pedestrians or bikers that I should look into? Probably trying to keep it to Downtown and the urban core for starters. Maybe we could all even form a covert tactical urbanism team.

We'll use my tandem), (Mayor Curry?), (Any Hooter Girls?), (Any DIA Board member with a COJ email address?), (Any IBM'er if that still exists?), (Wheel Chair Boys and Girls, Keep wheelin!).
Who wants to do a RICO loop?
