You've lost the plot with this one.
A lane created for and dedicated exclusively to bicycles, by reducing motor vehicle lane size or number, where motor vehicles are forbidden, is saying that bikes
don't belong there? It's a custom tailored invitation to use that route.
That's like saying that even though Home Depot provides 17 handicapped parking spots, they don't want physically challenged people entering their parking lot.
