This supports my contention that much of the anti-facilities argument is more based on the misinterpretation that advocating for facilities goes hand in hand with the loss of a cyclist's right to ride on the road.
If you don't like facilities don't ride on them.
Certainly, you are not saying bicycle facilities are a necessity for everyone, Buzzman. This is evident from your posts, which are open and honest.
Yet laws allowing the restriction of cyclists from roads adjacent to bike facilities are a reality.
