Subject: Now for something lighthearted

I usually go into COJ to not be serious and saw this list on Facebook today.

It's written about New York, but I'm sure it applies to many cities. In fact, I almost ran into number 18 yesterday. We have a bike lane that goes wrong the wrong way down a 1 way street and in order to get around a police car that was parked in it, I had to head the wrong way down a one way street.

#1 applies to me too, except it is multiple bikes.

Well that link just went out to the bike and tri club distribution list. Philly is famous for cops parking in bike lanes and people going the wrong way down one-way streets.

I have never been to NYC but I agree you see a lot of that in most cities.

It has been over 15 years since I have navigated a big city on a bike, but that took me right back.  My favs: #10, #15,#42.  Thanks Jen!
