But----you could go to a City Council meeting and express your concerns about bike lanes. Or call David Hagan, our CC rep. They just got the big' ol book of crappy streets at the last CC meeting. They are going to start looking at residential streets as to repairs. <br /><br />No doubt, every street that is proposed will be of an emergency nature.Edith Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06623443279337364086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1674561724432497133.post-17267786359722046282011-07-23T19:15:53.600-05:002011-07-23T19:15:53.600-05:00I hope the newly repaired Laurent and Sam Houston ...I hope the newly repaired Laurent and Sam Houston will have shoulders but do you think they will allow for bike lanes?....Naw,doesn't matter because as you say we don't have bicycle friendly drivers.<br /><br />Btw last night Bill Maher said that Sarah Palin's eldest son, Track, is expecting a baby with his wife. The big hoopla is that they have only been married for two months but his wife is nearly in her third trimester.He was joking (I think) but should this family be the face of "abstinence only education?".....:-)Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02668070524354374505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1674561724432497133.post-45678568003381391602011-07-23T18:15:30.491-05:002011-07-23T18:15:30.491-05:00What makes Victoria so bicycle un-friendly is the ...What makes Victoria so bicycle un-friendly is the lack of shoulders on our roads. The lanes are up against the curb. My brother rides from my house to Riverside and he always comes home with some scary story!<br /><br />Austin--a very bicycle friendly town--has bike lanes on so many streets. They have built in accommodations for the cyclists. The folks riding bikes in Austin do not scare me nearly as much as the folks in Victoria do! Hell, the drivers in Austin do not scare me as much as the drivers in Victoria do!<br /> <br />You have my word that I will look out for you and the other cyclists and I hope you always have safe travels.Edith Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06623443279337364086noreply@blogger.com
