I’m a runner. I hope we get our own lane, too. I’m tired of shouting “on your left!” to those gd power walkers, retirees with their comfort shoes and soccer moms with their ****ing strollers.

i ride that stretch on my commute to and from work, and i agree that it would be better without the extra white paint. there’s maybe a total of 40 yards of usable bike lane in each direction (from South to Robinson). also, what’s there is completely useless to a cyclist who’s not comfortable commanding their space when the bike lanes get interrupted near the intersection with Central. on the other hand, i take that stretch daily because it’s the best, safest option i’ve found, and it’s never given me any trouble. it’s just because of my confidence while riding in traffic and not the extra white paint.

If he was riding in the direction of the arrow, this would never have happened. Tragic, just tragic.

One unfortunate aspect of this collection of photos is that some “people on bikes” would see nothing wrong with the paint treatment.

Scott, I ride an electric self-balancing unicycle and there’s far too little room in those areas photographed!

Nice snake-bite drain grates too!

Keri where’s the bike lane?

I thought a bike lane was a vehicular travel lane, Steve Magas’ simple definition of a road is the area between the white line.

The diamond and bicycle symbol appear to be on a paved shoulder, possibly it a bike route?
