02:10 video
A one mile stretch of Nueces Street will be transformed into a safe haven for bicyclists under this new plan, but drivers will have a harder time navigating the changes.

by The Texas Triffid Ranch – Odd Plants and Oddities
“And the Bikepath Warrior? That was the last we ever saw of him.”
Okay, I’ve been bicycling to work and for errands for nearly six straight years, only driving when the weather was too foul, and I’ve been biking for a lot longer than that.
