If you think I'm trying to build consensus with those that stand opposed to any type of bicycling facilitated roadscape you're fooling yourself.

I'm calling them the stick in the mud, obsolete don quixotes and fringe lunatics that they are. you dropped a significant qualifier in my quote

did you ever think, danarnold, that there's a growing movement afoot in america from all sides to reduce the dependence on the private automobile for all its attendant ills?

there's a big thread about this called 'other agendas' started by some Texas VC buffoon that is critical of the far ranging interests directed towards increasing bicycling ride share in the USA.




'exact and specific ways'?? you think i've got some master plan to stripe a bikelane on every road in america?



I recognize value in roadscape design that facilitates bicycling, specificity is not required.

oh that's right you can see the value of bikelanes on higher speed roadways i guess you need some concessions
