And this year, it may just have been an issue of quality over quantity—“We were really happy to have pretty high quality bikes this year,” says Kelley. To those bike-less Quadlings out there, better luck next year. It looks like you’re stuck with the shuttle or the long, cold trek through Cambridge Commons for the time being...

...lose," she says. She predicts little fuss, except from "back benchers." How much of a political issue the bill will create won't be known for some time. Jennifer E. Duffy, political analyst and editor with the Cook Political Report, says any political grist for Republicans will probably depend on the level of opposition in Congress and how the issue is raised. Republicans could look for allies within the ranks of conservative Democrats to try to bring the bill to a vote in Congress - a big if. If so, the issue could become ammunition to be used against incumbent Democrats...
