Speaking of contraflow bike lanes.
This week I saw a guy ride the bike lane on the wrong side of the Manitou Dr from Fairway and almost got hit head on twice as he passed the MEC driveway. I thought I was going to see a ghost.
I see this behaviour a lot. It seems many riders think if there is a bike lane on the road you can ride in any direction. I've had people come at me head on a few times in the lanes on Margaret.
I'm happy to see the contraflow proceeding downtown, I've wanted to see that implemented for years.
