Bike Friendly Businesses, Winter 2010

So the LAB has announced its Bike Friendly Business award winners for winter, 2010. Like it has done in the past, it released the data as a PDF document, rendering it pretty impossible to analyze.

So, like I have done in the past, I copied it into vim and regexp'd it into a CSV file so I could sort it and take a look at it.

So here's the breakdown.
