My neighbor Lane Wimberley rides his bike almost every morning to his work. And also he rides his bike to many other places. But sometimes he might have trouble with his bike routes. When new developments are built, sometimes they forget about the bikers that might be going there. "Local development projects have traditionally been plagued with utter disregard for cycling issues," said Lane.
Bicyclists sort of had a small victory because the Domain II has come up with this thing called "sharrows". They are little signs that they paint on the road that show that the street is made for bicyclists and motorized vehicles. At 15 miles per hour, both motorists and bicyclists feel safe.
I am happy that my neighbor Lane had a small victory. A good reason that I wrote this article is that bikes are good for the earth, so I'm happy, and happy earth day to all, and to all a good life!
