The idea behind this week’s ride (and next week’s as well) was to see some of the work being done to acknowledge growing bike ridership on the East Side. Numerous streets have received some new road paint to create reserved lanes for bikers to ride and have a portion of the road.



There is more work to come to accommodate riders throughout the East Side, but it is a positive start to allow for bike traffic in some areas so far. Those efforts can’t help but cause some traffic calming in those streets. The upshot should provide some space and safety for all
