[Spam] [Vision2020] Third Street bridge

[sean]

Actually, about the only sections of the hwy that 
you will see a cyclist is from Walmart to 
Airport.  Those riders doing the Airport Rd route 
(heading to Pullman, Albion, Palouse, Moscow or 
wherever) have to ride a section of the hwy. 
Occasionally someone will do a short section 
along other portions.  Effectively, however, 
noone rides the full length of the hwy.  I say 
that from the perspective of doing the commute 
5x/wk.

Besides, banning a legal vehicle from a roadway 
for which they pay taxes (OK, not in WA for ID 
residents, or vice versa) makes no sense.  It's 
not an issue, and this manner of thinking 
underscores a way of thinking that has led to a 
lot less bicycle use than is reasonable in the 
Palouse/America.  But $3+ gas (or the widening of 
the hwy and its ugly subsequent delays) may 
change that a fraction.

Hope your commute was as my 2-wheeled one was this morn!
