BICYCLE FRIENDLY COMMUNITY
This marker noting Spokanes designation as a Bicycle Friendly Community by the League of American Bicyclists recently appeared in the 200 block of East High Drive. I would imagine that there are others going up around town.
I guess that makes it "official"..
Amusingly, as I was passing a similar sign on Howard just across from the Arena, also posted atop the "Bike Route" sign, I was passed on the left, honked at, right-hooked, and then called an "asshole" for riding on the bike route in this bike-friendly community.
ReplyDeleteOf course, there are far more polite drivers than jerks like this, but they are the ones that always stick in my mind the most.
Just like there are more polite cyclist than jerk cyclist, but unfortunately THEY are the ones that stick in the mind of drivers. THAT is the uphil battle we cyclists face every day.
