I really don’t understand the reverse cycling. Although I once saw it on University at Keats Way, where the bicycle lane is between the straight-through lane and the right-turn lane. So instead of being right at the edge of the road cycling the wrong way, the person was coming right at me. In other news, my car’s horn works properly, and keeps working if you hold down the button!
If somebody doesn’t want to cross the street to get to the right-way bicycle lane they should just use the sidewalk, carefully. Although I suppose somebody who thinks it’s OK to bicycle the wrong way probably won’t be careful on the sidewalk either, so maybe I shouldn’t encourage them…
