Metropolitan DC Local Politics
Are you a Bethesda resident? Seems like nearly everyone signing in support don’t actually live in Bethesda. If you Silver Spring or Wheaton, like almost all of the “county residents” that have signed the petition then why aren’t you making a petition for bike lanes in your community? |
And here is the link for Bethesda residents. https://www.change.org/p/remove-the-catastrophically-dangerous-bike-lanes-on-old-georgetown-road-in-bethesda-md |
Thanks. I just signed it. Can't wait to get my bike out so I can cycle to the YMCA. Means one less car on the road if I can cycle. |
There was already an established bike lane to the YMCA on Old Georgetown Rd. Thank for playing but you seem to like to like to keep lying. |
And it ended south of the Beltway. Now it goes all the way to Pike and Rose. More connectivity. Hooray! |
It does not now go “all the way to Pike & Rose”. Thanks for playing. |
That is the link for drivers who are upset that they only get 4 lanes instead of 6 now. |
It is the link for Bethesda residents. The other link is for performative Silver Spring, Wheaton, DC and VA residents. |
North of Nicholson, the bike lanes on Old Georgetown Road are part of the county's White Flint Western Workaround project. https://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/dot-dte/Resources/Images/WhiteFlintWw_AerialMap.jpg |
So you admit to lying. They do not go to Pike & Rose. |
Click on the link. |

I biked from DC to Pike and Rose today. Frankly I think the bike lanes on Old Georgetown Rd are amazing.
Other than rush hour, that street doesn't need 3 lanes in each direction. That said, not enough bicyclists......YET. More people need to start using this. Huge game changer. Let's make MD doesn't take them out. |
You said “now”. There are no bike lanes to Pike and Rose now. So you’re just making it up because you don’t live here and think an online document is equivalent to the real world. |
Sweet. 30mph is all I need. |
The bike lanes go all the way to Pike and Rose. I literally biked there yesterday. It wont be on Google Maps cause its too new so you'll just have to drive there and see for yourself. |
