I kinda disagree, they are left in the middle or take up a third of shared paths like the Burke-Gilman all of the time. Maybe we just gave up complaining?

- randomfool 8y agoI'm sorry, but that's a MASSIVE overstatement. I kindly ask you to grab one of those bikes and do a few miles on the Burke. It's beautiful out, really hope you enjoy it. I commute regularly on the Burke, it's wonderful. Cars are so much more of an issue on my commute. More bikes please!
- jpwgarrison 8y agoI bike commute 6 miles each way 4-5 days a week, about 1/2 on the Burke and other paths. That is where my comment comes from. (A day late to amend, I suppose) Especially around UW, there are ALWAYS rental bikes in the way. Not always dangerously so, but adding to congestion. I am trying hard not to be too old-man-crotchety about this, but the part where the business model of these companies depends on storing assets on the public right of way ... grinds my gears.
