Nthing the shit about commutes. I wound up living 10-15 minutes on foot from the ferry for a year a while back... and I was still like 90 minutes from everywhere. Midtown, Bushwick, even a job in DUMBO right by the private ferry... with the transit layout, ~90 minutes. Honestly the ferry ride portion is the nicest commute I've ever had, great to wake up to the harbor with some swill terminal coffee, but not worth it.

Every bike advocate I know wants racks on busses and some have even actively worked on it. The MTA's answer, at least in the past, is that the extra length on the bus would be a problem fitting them all in parking at bus depots. Of course, the MTA could just put more busses in service at any given point and have less parked...
