Get the hell out of the bike lane.
Ok, so here in Charlotte, 4th street has a bike lane. The "No parking" signs are posted all up and down it. You have to climb a decent hill on both sides of tryon when coming up 4th, so the bike lane was well put. Now vehicles need to keep their ass out of it!. I mean damn.. Its not a turn lane... not a parking spot... Even the CATS (bus transit system) currently has 3-4 busses parked in the lane the block before the bus depot. It was bad enough having to ride along the fencing thats there for the light rail building construction... add this on and whats the point. Today, I was weaving in and out of traffic <-> bike lane and back and forth. This is dangerous. So I just started riding only in the road. Less chance of getting ran over that way. The city needs to crack down on this.. start ticketing. I see the Iron Mountain shredding company parked there at least 3 days a week. Its got to stop.
