On your bike but not for very long with the new anti bike laws here in Málaga.😷🚲 • • • #anti #bike #notbikefriendly #nobikenolife #nobike #malaganotfrie #timocarril30 #carrilbici #nobikelane #bikelife #streets #streetbikes #covid_19 #coviddiaries #lifewithoutlimitations #bnwphotography #bnw_captures #bnw_greatshots #bnwlife #weather #rainyday (at Málaga, Spain) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKkZSuXnB0x/?igshid=ojxld61ul9pg

I'm riding in the lane in a 35mph zone.  This joker comes up behind me with his horn blaring and barely gets over in time to miss me.  The bridge ahead is about 1000 ft long, and he gets across in less than 10 seconds.  That translates to about 70mph!

This is the conversation to the best of my memory: Officer: You are required to ride within 12 inches of the white line. Me: No, sir.  That is not true. Officer: Do you want to debate this? Me: (silent) Officer: (some reference to the car behind me running me over) Unfortunately, he didn't stop to talk, so I didn't get his ID.  Also, my camera is useless for picking up conversations.  :(

As if I wasn’t there.

I was talking to my friend Andy the other day about bike routes and thought I'd give an example of what it's like to go under I95 on University Blvd in the morning.

Construction bottleneck

Legally, I should probably not be riding in the parking lane anyway ( http://flbikelaw.org/2010/02/driving-in-parking-lanes/ ) but this is still a pain.

No comment.

JTA bus 1439 just about ran me into the railing on the way home this evening.

Who do I report this to?

This stretch of road is the worst on my commute.  Traffic going above the speed limit and passing too closely.  No separate bicycle facilities. 4 seconds in a minivan passes too close and then at 1:00 a big black pickup pulling a trailer causes me to have to swerve to the right.

At 1:00 I'm stopped behind a van who's two cars behind a stopped bus and the guy behind me honks.  At 1:35 the passenger of the red car yells and points to suggest I ride on the sidewalk.  The irony is that I'm going about 28 mph in a 35 zone when he goes by.  And a quarter mile later the sidewalk disappears at the bridge.
