Bicycle Friendly

Earlier today, I was walking around the back of my complex and noticed some new asphalt had been laid. It was on a hill and rather than just laying a ramp that cars would be tempted to drive up, stairs were made. The interesting thing is that this would be a great shortcut through my complex, but the stairs are so large, that I'd break my bike in half if I tried to ride up or down them. But, being a very bike friendly place, I noticed this:


Every step has a ramp on the side, so you CAN ride up and down. How cool is that?! Being a Floridan, we don't have much occasion for stairs like this, but if the rest of the US doesn't do it, they should.
