bike lanes make this rider avoid roads completely. What contrived absolutism!!!!! and coming from a rider with the firm belief that bicyclists shouldn't be on roads with over 40mph speed limits.
Quite the addled dogmatism they're peddling in Maryland.
Come out here and see for yourself. There are very few bike lanes. Those that do exist, are poorly placed, and marked. Ian lives in the southern end of the county, I live in the northern end of the county.
I never said I can't use a road that has a bike lane. I said I won't use bike lanes.
I did say, I don't think a cyclist should be on a road, with a 50mph speed limit. Around here, motorists' drive like maniacs.
