i think it may be a legit "no bike" sign. the other day i saw a cyclist get pulled over by a cop because he was riding on this road with no shoulder. it is a scary road even for cars, because the lanes are very narrow and there is no shoulder. at first when i saw him i thought he was crazy cuz i would never ride anywhere near that road... but then i saw the cop and felt a bit reassured cuz really no bikes should be riding on that road. if you look at that pic, there's no shoulder, and the right lane is a right turn lane. the danger would be in a biker who wants to go straight with a car behind him who wants to turn right.

i know you guys like to quote that uniform vehicle code all the time, but really, there are some cases where it would be safer for both rider and driver to ban bicycles from certain roads.
