[Carfreeliving] Bikes and bikes, hand(lebar) in hand(lebar)

[Mike Sallaberry]

Just reread this...bikes walking bikes makes for a humorous image, but I 
meant to say "Cyclists walk bikes..."

Josh, I don't think you are accurately conveying what may happen if the 
turn is allowed by saying that there will be "hundreds of cars queuing." 
That won't be the case, especially if there can be improvements made to 
Duboce to make that a better route for freeway-bound motorists. 

Unfortunately, it looks like the decisions which lead to the current No 
Right Turn at the intersection fail to acknowledge human nature and the 
limitations of what facilities and enforcement can accomplish.  Designing 
in a way counter to these realities is pointless.  It would be like 
installing a "Bikes walk bikes across crosswalk" sign at the Fell-Masonic 
path crossing. 

Mike
