dotriderblog can’t figure out how to upload photos to the site, but here’s the link to the dotbike flickr site which chronicles the half mile stretch of Talbot Ave that was sharoed instead of laned… Outside of getting off the bike and pacing out the entire stretch showing why the myriad of cross streets, bus stops and driveways along with the total off street parking alternatives in this stretch the flickr site should give a pretty clear idea of what they look like… http://www.flickr.com/photos/dotbike/?saved=1 So there it is. Anyone who has ever riden this stretch would know why dotriderblog feels the sharo is not enough protection for riders in this stretch. In fact more than one dotbike member has told dotriderblog they’ve had an accident in this stretch…Certainly it’s the one dotriderblog ends up yelling and waving at cars more than anywhere else in the city…
