I agree. There is nothing that compares with being able to ride at your own pace without the rest of the world along for the ride.
Where I live would be ideal if the MUPs were wider, smoother and traffic was separated. Essentially I would like to see four double wide lanes, two for each direction and separate paths for bikes and peds. This could be accomplished at great cost, but nirvana doesn’t always come cheap.
Nope. It comes at about $100,000 to $250,000 per mile. 4 to 10 times that if you have to build a bridge.
