Bike snark

2015-08-12 05:01:11.267419+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Shadow forwarded along this thread about a picture of a cyclist taking the lane and not riding in a designated bike lane... https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/..._theres_a_bike_lane_right_there/

And I've got one thing to say about that bike lane: Note the dotted yellow line down the middle. Of the three foot wide bike lane. On a downhill where, we can't see the car's speedometer, but I'll bet the biker is doing 30+MPH.

Ignoring the likelihood of all sorts of gravel and trash in that bike like, who the frack thought that two way traffic beside a lane of auto traffic was in any way acceptable?
