Market Street Bike Lane

Todd — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 19:40:51 +0000

I noticed today at San Francisco Bicycle Coalition that the super cool Market Street bike lane in SF keeps growing.

In a February survey, 90% of bicyclists said the one-block separated bike lane on Market St., which was piloted initially, made them feel safer, and 80% of respondents said they would bike on Market Street more often if the separated bike lane was expanded for longer.

The SF Bicycle Coalition has worked closely with the SFMTA to install this innovation and is leading the charge for a continuous and fully separated bikeway along Market Street in both directions from Octavia to the Embarcadero, when the street is repaved in 2013.

I wish the best of luck to our local South Bay Bicycle Coalition in getting some more cyclist friendly bike lanes such as the Market Street one – right here in the South Bay Los Angeles area.

Bolt Skurvy

Check out the Bolt Skurvy by Paul Frank. Paul Frank bikes are made by Nirve, by the way…this is a nice ride and the basket on the front is useful while avoiding the dorky look some baskets have. The white grips are a nice touch!
