Stupidest Bike Lane in America
Categories: Fitness
I lived four glorious years in Gainesville, Florida, a city flush with bike lanes. I rode my bike everywhere -- my husband commuted on two wheels. I'd like to think if city zoning boards could do it all over again, bike lanes would be ubiquitous nationwide.
As you can see from this Slate V video, bike lanes are often an afterthought. Here's Slate's offering for The Stupidest Bike Lane in America -- although I'm certain there's a more pathetic one out there.
Why would LA bother striping a 12 second bike lane? Pedal pushers experience a lightning quick letdown on this one.

Oh, here in the Boston area the bike lanes are not just stupid, they're moronic. Just like the one in the video. They start and stop in about a block.
