Joe,

I have no issues with cyclists if they obey the law, but it seems that about 90% of them around here won't. They spent $10 million re-doing this boulevard to make it a two lane one instead of four so they could put in a dam sidewalk to nowhere and a bike lane on each side, I think in the last three years I have seen three or four bicycles in the bike lane. The rest are out in the one traffic lane they left and won't move over at all. There was one bunch of about 30 that I came up behind up at Lassen and they were great. They all pulled over to the side of the road as it is narrow and steep and waved me by. That is a favorite route for the bicycle clubs around here to ride. They haul the bikes to the bottom of the mountain and then ride up and through the park.

Ron
