Auto ist geparkt genau vor einem Sharrow

Auto ist geparkt genau vor einem Sharrow

Leider ein weiterer trauriger Beweis was #Sharrows für einen Nutzen für Radfahrys haben: Keinen.

Ist im Grunde nur eine teure Bepinselung. Autofahry kann auch nicht gestraft werden. Geht nur, wenn hier zusätzlich Halt- und Parkverbot verordnet wird […]

Bei unserer Politik sind #Sharrows so beliebt, dass sie schon auf Gehwegen eingezeichnet werden.

Accessing the #W29thAvePBL from downtown #denver is also super sketchy with the #15thAvePBL coming to a dead-end at Larimer & #bikedenver riders getting to cross diagonally from the left-side to the right being left with #SharrowsAreBullshit.

The #BikeDEN #12thAveBikeRoute with #SharrowsAreBullshit directing riders onto Elizabeth St.
bit.ly/DenverBikeMap, or is it?

Someone from #DenverDOTI said that this is only a future #bikefacility.

This was just one trip down the #BikeDEN #E12thAveBikeLane which turns into #SharrowsAreBullshit. I then turned onto Elizabeth, which should be a #NeighborhoodBikeway, b/c it connects to the #CityParkEsplanadePBL.
- U-turn
- Speeding from behind
- Bike Lane blocked then cut-off

Serious question...
How do I report this?
- 3 dangerous passes approaching an intersection
- Speeding on a "Bikeway"
- Bikeway installed with nothing but #SharrowsAreBullshit
- All the above

Some get frustrated with my reporting. I get frustrated seeing drivers risk lives.

To be honest...

I fucking hate biking in Denver.
The drivers are absolute ignorant assholes.

No way you catch me in a block on a Bikeway going 20mph.

But TBH, I'm more pissed at @DenverDOTI for thinking #SharrowsAreBullshit would be sufficient...

I go from a pleasant ride seeing puppies to feeling like a driver was trying to intimidate me with their vehicle.
It's yet another reason I usually skip #E12thAve despite it being a #BikeDEN route.

Tell me your bike infrastructure is terrible without telling me it's terrible...
#SharrowsAreBullshit
This is a #NeighborhoodBikeway into piles of snow & ice preceding a curb.

For those unfamiliar...
This is Southbound Franklin Street at E 17th Ave. We get a bike lane right into #SharrowsAreBullshit.

This is another reason why I want the Diverter at 14th removed, UNLESS we also get a Diverter here.

Here are some #SharrowsAreBullshit on E12thAve turning onto the #GarfieldStNBW.

My understanding is that the intersection of 12th & Garfield will get some safety improvements with the #E12thAveNBW. I first learned of it...

New @Strava segment just dropped in Denver. It's the #SharrowsAreBullshit route along E12thAve from Clayton to Speer accessing the #CherryCreekTrail.
https://www.strava.com/segments/35361748

Nearly 3.5km of NOTHING from @DenverDOTI for #BikeDEN except for #SharrowsAreBullshit!

Some of the local residents want to keep the #SharrowsAreBullshit & have the #E7thAveNeighborhoodBikeway abandoned.

What makes the #GarfieldStNBW the best #NeighborhoodBikeway installed by @DenverDOTI in the @CityofDenver?

It isn't the #SharrowsAreBullshit.

It's the #TrafficDiverters, #ModalFilters, & #CycleTracks.

If you haven't ridden it yet, you need to see what's possible for #bikeDEN.

Why was that person riding a Line Bike on the sidewalk?

IMO, it is because #SharrowsAreBullshit & E 12th Ave is the only connection thru Congress & Cheesman Parks North of 8th Ave. Plus, though #20isPlenty passed, this street will remain 25mph allowing 34mph before a citation.

Teenager on a bike is riding on the sidewalk along the #bikeDEN D10 on E12thAve.

Why?

Because #SharrowsAreBullshit!

If we can't divert traffic off of 12th, then we need an alternate bike route where traffic CAN be diverted.

Love that we'll FINALLY have a connected bike route through the @congress_park neighborhood in the #GarfieldStNBW!

IMO, all other #bikeDEN routes dead-end, lead to #SharrowsAreBullshit, or lack basic way-finding.
Thank you, @DenverDOTI!

Just left my local ACE Hardware where someone stopped me to ask...
What are Sharrows?

Thanks, @Pflax1!

Sidenote...
Been LOVING the @Surly_Bikes Ted trailer!

Just need to engineer a way to make the rear door swing open. Just SUPER loud when rolling down 12th to the store.
Did I mention #SharrowsAreBullshit?

To my knowledge, the @KingSoopersNews at 9th & Corona has some of the best grocery store #bikeDen Parking.

Too bad there is no direct route from here where bikes are permitted that doesn't force riders onto #SharrowsAreBullshit.

Now, if you're uncomfortable riding along #SharrowsAreBullshit, where do you go?

If you decide to ride up Clayton to 11th, here is your reward.
The intersection of 11th at Josephine really needs a signal of some kind. Riders have to turn and ride against traffic on Josephine.

A few pages later...

The first treatment listed for a "Neighborhood Bikeway" is #SharrowsAreBullshit. Why?

Sharrows don't prioritize bicycles in any way.

Give ideas!
- limit free parking (let's start with 3 cars, yeah, families have more than 3 parked out there.)
- #SharrowsAreBullshit if a Sharrow is painted, it must lead to a traffic diverter or filter.
- Bike Infrastructure doesn't count unless connected to another Facility.
