which scenario is more vehicular, shoulder riding or riding in a travel lane (striped for bikes)?

seems disarmingly skewed if foresterism declares shoulders more vehicular than striped travel lanes....
Hmmmm, sorry Bek ... I am not trying to avoid fully answering the question. I just thought that I would have a few more minutes to think about it before anyone else responded.

Using the vernacular of "vehicular" with my understanding that ordinary vehicles do not travel on the shoulder of major roads, I would say that your bike lanes are more vehicular.
