Trying to cross here on foot or bike is a complete clusterfuck!!!
Trying to cross here on foot or bike is a complete clusterfuck!!!
Just an observation: I noticed in the municipal rules for Bloomington bicycling, that Tricycles are still listed as toys and exempt from the regular rules , and in some cases prohibited from the regular rules of the bicyclists. I feel as though a clarification may be needed, as there are tricycles that are not toys in the familiar sense. My "bike" has 3 wheels and has the ability to keep pace with road traffic in some areas of town. The wheel size on my trike is 20", and by no means a kids play toy in the conventional sense as my top speed is about 50 MPH (yes, non-motorized) Thank you for you consideration into looking into the update of the language for tricycle definition. Sincerely Randy Craw, proud owner of a modified for speed, recumbent, Catrike, road edition bike.
Bike lanes in west 3rd/Adams/Kirkwood full of asphalt and debris. Very unsafe. Like trying to ride in sand.
Eastbound bike lane on W 3rd/Adams STILL full of asphalt, rocks and debris. I'd love to use the lanes that the city just spent money to install but its TOTALLY UNSAFE. COME ON!
bike islands are a terrible idea, I am an every day bike commuter and I just about hit 5 college kids as the got off the bus staring at their phones and texting. SERIOUSLY, COME ON.
Hello, I wish to voice my concern in the nicest way possible. I am not asking for compensation or threatening to sue. I just want to bring light to a situation that is possibly hazardous and/or costly. As I was biking to a meeting at work last night, I ran over a large steel plate in the middle of College Ave. It is in front of the construction site where the Waffle House used to be. It nearly threw me off my bike, and I could have easily been run over by other cars. Luckily, it just popped both my tires and no further damage was taken. I would love to see a warning sign, or some sort of reflective material on these large steel plates in the future. Just something to thank about. I thank you in advance for your responsiveness. Sincerely, Caleb Fossee
The ramps leading to the underpass have not been cleaned from snow nor ice. This problem was present yesterday morning and evening as well.
Snow.
Low hanging foliage over sidewalks from 800 thru 1000 E Miller Drive and the 1500/1600 block of S Huntington Dr.
There is a problem when driving in a car going south on Palmer and approaching Allen St. Cars park too close to the corner to be able to see bicycles coming from the west. Please mark the corner for no parking.
