I'm a member of the 'planning of every public road should include accomodating bikes and limited mobility devices;'

I recognize 8 and 80 year olds shouldn't have to be so terrified of the road landscape in america because of worthless talking points like every lane is a bike lane. WORTHLESS.

people like maddyfish and CBHI need to get on board with the growing trend of accomodating bikes thru thoughtful infrastructure implementation, and recognize the value a facilties rich streetscape can bring bicyclists and pedestrians.

'11 foot bike lanes' that motorists also travel in a 2-3-4 times the speed of bikes doesn't cut it as a blanket accomodation model for bikes and cars sharing public roads, sorry. unless you want to encourage .5 percent bicycling modal shares......
