On the barely believable news front, Atlanta is featured in a publication called "Progressive Railroading," and MARTA is turning to crowd-funding to attract more Millennial riders. Seriously. The transit agency recently raised $4,000 to help fund three bicycle-repair kiosks that'll give bike-toting riders the capability to fix flats and tighten loose handlebars. Said one spokesperson: "Cycling is becoming quite popular in our service area (and) MARTA is making it convenient to bring your bike on the MARTA system." [Progressive Railroading]
