It would be nice if there were bike racks at the businesses on the corner of Jordan and 3rd (e.g. Dragon Express, Soma, Mother Bears, etc). Right now there is no safe place to park bikes and most people lock their bikes to sign posts.
The bike rack at Sahara Mart on 2nd street is not ideally located. It is afixed to a street sign. The street sign blocks one of the parking spots. The rack faces the street and if you park your bike on the side of the rack that you are supposed to, it hangs in the street. The other option is park your bike on the "wrong" side of the rack and have it hanging in the sidewalk in the way of pedestrians. Plus, the bike isn't well supported on that side, so the chances of it falling over are great.
The bike lane on Lincoln from 1st street to 4th street is covered in debris from the recent weather. Additionally, there is a giant pothole at the intersection of Lincoln and Smith. It would also be nice if people did not park their cars in the bike lane along Lincoln.
Plow the fucking bike lanes!
I work at Motorwerks BMW I suggest that something is done for us to cross American Blvd! What is it going to take someone getting hit by a motorvehicle?! People don't even look at the pedestrain crossing signs! I think there would be a lawsuit that the city would not want to have on them! Get something done please
On the ramp east of the bypass that leads to the 8th street underpass there are two big black ropes hanging from a tree, right at face level for a cyclist. I nearly got smacked in the face with one as I was traveling down the ramp to go west under the bypass.

My daughter very nearly hit her elbow on this new sign. May we suggest that instead of this hard to see danger to bikers, we paint the poles with reflective stripes, and remove the sign? Pretty please? We use this route for multiple daily bike trips.
"new 7th street extension" Hello, I am a cycling commuter. I go from the east side to the west side of town and use 7th street and the new tunnel under bypass. The new 7th street connection to this tunnel has an extra high "lip" on the sidewalk/driveway entrance to this tunnel. If you could shave it down to create a more gentle slope for skinny bike tires it would make the ride from the road into the tunnel (going east) much safer. thank you.
