And a 50 mile ride to work in Sunnyvale? Get real. I bike everywhere but I also put my bike on a train when that is possible and faster than just riding the bike.
Given ~95% of households in the locality own cars, I assume this extension is addressing congestion or pollution; it's hardly a $2.3 billion investment so 77k people don't have to drive as far to the next Bart stop. I wasn't suggesting taking cars away from people, I was trying to make the existing roads work better, not just in the locality but throughout the area.
