City of Vista, near San Diego is removing protected bike lanes after community pushbackby Extra_Place_1955

tl;dr…city spent $1.5 million to install, halted construction, is removing most of what’s been installed, costing $500k to remove.
Even cyclists didn’t like them, apparently…

    I think it’s considered manly because of the power dynamic of ypu having control over something that could easily kill you

      I see how people might think that.

      Personally I think power is… Let me quote from classic web comic the order of the stick:

      Power, it isn’t something that you put on or take off like a jacket. It’s something you just ARE.

      If you can lose it by blowing two Will saves, you never really had any power in the first place, see what I’m saying?

      Thinking you’re powerful because you have a big car is foolish
