Comments on: Baltimore Getting Serious About Bikes http://www.streetsblog.org/2008/05/05/baltimore-getting-serious-about-bikes/ Covering the New York City Streets Renaissance Mon, 23 Nov 2009 05:31:30 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8 hourly 1 By: Andy B from Jersey http://www.streetsblog.org/2008/05/05/baltimore-getting-serious-about-bikes/comment-page-1/#comment-49662 Andy B from Jersey Tue, 06 May 2008 02:55:27 +0000 http://www.streetsblog.org/2008/05/05/baltimore-getting-serious-about-bikes/#comment-49662 This is what I said on StreetsBlog LA: Wow!! Why does every urban center in the Northeast “get it” besides those in New Jersey? BTW, that bike lane pictured above unfortunately looks like it put cyclists perfectly in the door-zone. ddartley: Don't feel bad. While New Jersey got more people working on bike/ped issues than most states, we still have a very hard time getting actual USABLE infrastructure installed. There must be less than 100 miles of real usable bike lanes in the entire state! This is what I said on StreetsBlog LA:
