If you all would just learn to bunnyhop like on a bmx none of this shit would happen. Trust me, the ability to hop up and or over things will save your life.

Going through your blog gives me a chance to recall why I like reading things with so much thought. It is nice to know that there are still great writers out there that can put fun into knowledgable information. Thank you for your role and eagerness to communicate your thoughts with us.

omg…the wall design reminded me of a town here in iowa that has the figure of a man on a motorcycle in the formed by the re-placed cement blocks where he went through the wall of the building after he left the ramped incline of the curve into town. how he missed the telephone pole no one knows…tragic reminders.

where do i get the yellow “look” shirts with the catchy phrases? i’m not finding them anywhere on the net…i saw them on “doap”

some ok points nick grego but…. When they put speedbumps everywhere in my town I bought a Pajero Evolution, now you need an offroad vehicle to drive at the speed limit. The speedhumps are also uncomfortable to ride on a fixie. I agree seperate lanes for bikes are great – infact they are probably the only way to seriously increase bike use….

i don’t like these at all. they are scary and would definitely discourage plenty of folks i know from biking. also, the message is way off base. the problem is not that motorized vehicle drivers not looking out for bikers, it is the physical infrastructure that encourages unsafe driving.

traffic calming devices such as speed bumps, narrower drive lanes, and lane shifts accomplish greater driver attentiveness, slower traffic, and better compliance with traffic laws. a one meter physical separation of bike lanes from drive lanes would be an inexpensive and incredibly effective solution that could be implemented on nearly all city streets and would also protect bikers and skaters from suddenly opening vehicle doors as well as traffic dangers.

finally, and possibly easiest and most cost effective — better enforcement of existing traffic laws, especially double parking, yellow-light running, and jaywalking. funds from ticketing these offenses would make enforcement pay for itself with possible surplus. city traffic is most dangerous when trying to squeeze through unexpectedly double parked cars and delivery vehicles or taxies picking up and dropping off anywhere and at any time without warning. dealing with these issues makes all drivers get frustrated and aggressive.

these are simple, proven effective, and cheap (or even surplus producing) measures that would make a tremendous difference instantly to our city by reducing pollution, accidents (not just car/bike accidents but also car/car and car/pedestrian accidents as well), and noise. the reduction in accidents would lower insurance and medical costs for everyone.

May it is just me, but these seem to have an anti-bike message. I’m sure they mean for drivers and bikers to “look”, but that is just not the message I get from a quick look.
