I think it's worth pointing out that having more alternatives to driving and making the city less car dependent would be a net positive for poor folks and people of color (esp Black folks) too because more people who cannot afford a car could still get around safely and efficiently.
Bike enthusiasts look the way they do bc biking isn't as accessible as it should be even in DC where we have it better than many other cities. More accessibility = a wider sampling of the population.
