New Sharrows

[Mark Blacknell]

ARLnow.com, an excellent local news site, recently posted a story (http://www.arlnow.com/2010/08/06/county-rolling-out-shared-bike-lanes) about Arlington's use of sharrows. Since sharrows aren't exactly part of the popular conscience yet, I'm glad to see coverage. I'm less glad to see it inspire Round 340912315 of Why I Hate People On Bikes Around Me. If anyone has any leftover goodwill, I invite you into the comments there.

Thanks Mark--in the next couple of days and weeks, BikeArlington and the County's Communications team is going to be getting the story on sharrows out to the public through it's various sources (Citizen, Insider, Social Media, etc...)

I love comment areas like that. They renew my faith in mankind. :D

I like to think it's the dying car culture going through the stages of grief. Many patients are in the "Anger" stage now.

Perfect. :D We can dream.

Have a good weekend y'all. I'm gonna go dance with buses for a while.

Wow that conversation went downhill quickly. Not really surprised.

... yes, the insane quickly take over anonymous forums.
