Traffic on 75th Street is problematic with speeders and idiots who pass on the right especially at intersections. From a cyclist's perspective simply putting stripes on 75th Street with much of it in the door zone is not going to do much to make it more appealing. I would still mostly use side streets and have always used side streets on group rides that I have lead.<br /><br />On the other hand, perhaps a bike lane would calm the traffic somewhat and 75th Street could use calming. Also, I don't like to see politically driven pull back related to the expansion of bike lanes. And the reasons given for why 75th Street was not appropriate are mostly BS.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
