The Paranoid Style in Bicycle Politics: A Bicoastal Freak-Out
- bifrost 13y agoI dunno, I have noticed a huge problem with bicycling in the bay area, and that is people do fall into the "cult of bicycle". Normally its not bad, but they're definately getting their own bizzare "fundamentalist" strains where its ok to mow down pedestrians and run off, ignore traffic signals (and often common sense). I'm also puzzled by the growth of bike lanes that push bicyclists onto busy heavily trafficed streets rather than less congested sidestreets where they'd be able to move more easily and safely. Then again, SF is one of the worst run cities in the US so I guess this isn't a surprise.
