While announcing his city's new protected bike lanes, Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel once said he wanted to "take all of [Seattle's] bikers but I also want all the jobs that come with this." Well, Seattle went and took Emanuel's transportation guy instead. Scott Kubly is awaiting city council approval as Seattle's new Department of Transportation Director. He comes with a reputation for being bike-friendly and working closely with bike shares. He'll fit right in. [SBB, Image by Steven Vance]
