Oregon has a law that requires cities to not have bike-eating storm grates. Mostly, cities comply. Well, at one street corner where I hop up onto the sidewalk to access the bridge sidewalk over the river, there is one Mutha of a bike eater, with the grates parallel to the direction a bike or wheelchair would normally travel.

Well, I emailed the City Engineer last weekend. Not really expecting much, but mentioned that the grate could eat a bike or wheelchair.

Sonofagun! Today, there was a city road hazard cone placed on the grate! They're gonna actually replace it! Wow!
