Can someone please post the link for the petition to support the bike lanes? I’m a county resident and I have zero idea where one would find such a thing.

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?

Yes, I live in the Wyngate neighborhood off OGR.

The whole thing is weird anyway. People who live in downtown Silver Spring or Wheaton or anywhere else in Montgomery County don't need a passport and visa to come to Bethesda and drive or ride or walk on Old Georgetown Road. Plus some of the most vociferous posters on that epic NextDoor thread about the evils of the bike lanes also don't live in Bethesda.

The question is why do you have more of an interest in what goes on in Bethesda instead of right outside your door? It’s a bit odd to be sooo fixated on Bethesda when Aspen Hill is significantly closer to Silver Spring and Wheaton and I see zero advocacy about the primarily people of color who have been dying in “traffic violence” there.

Because you're not looking.

Where do I need to look? Please show me, I would love to see evidence of the same level of internet from you folks in Silver Spring and Wheaton in your own communities.

Here is the petition to support the bike lanes: https://www.change.org/p/support-the-sha-redesign-of-old-georgetown-road?redirect=false

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.

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.

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.

Where are the bike lanes? It’s a construction site. They are not there now. Thanks for playing. Keep on lying.

Bike lanes are on top right of that twitter photo. On both sides of the street
Also, the county reconnected Old Georgetown Road to Executive St and reopened that connection which has been closed to driving through since around 1989.

On this google maps photo the bike lanes arent' there, but I was there yesterday riding my bike on the bike lanes that are now on Executive drive.
MD gov did a great thing. Makes biking to Pike and Rose safe.

Where’s the flex posts? These are not protected bike lanes yet. The claim is that they are there now, which is a lie. Thanks for playing.

Nobody said anything about protected bike lanes. Just bike lanes. Which are there. Flex posts aren't protection anyway.

Have you tried googling?

The classic response. Thanks for clarifying that you, Silver Spring/Wheaton resident, are crazily fixated on Bethesda but not your own community. It’s honestly weird.

Get off Internet. Ride bike or drive car to Pike and Rose and look. Protected bike lane is there.

Good to know that the only thing the cyclists community wants is paint in an active construction zone. The next time I see the online shrieking about being “protected by paint” I will refer them to you.

The main issue with the lanes is the 495 ramps which are screwed up by the flex posts. Nice for you to agree that unprotected lanes are sufficient. Remove the flex posts and everyone will be happy. Compromise is great and I thank you for being rationale.

No, remove the flex posts and replace them with concrete or steel bollards or both. Concrete and steel are protection.

So you have changed your tune?

This is just a dumb argument in any case. Simone lied. The bike lanes to Pike & Rose are not complete.

And none of this matters, because SHA are in process of being re-evaluated and will be changed.

You're all tangled up in yourself. Are there bike lanes? Yes. Do they go to Pike and Rose? Yes. Are they protected? No, they are separated. Do people want protected bike lanes? Yes. Is SHA still in the process of installing their bike lanes? Yes. Are there people in Bethesda who support the bike lanes? Yes. Are people advocating for safer roads in other parts of Montgomery County too? Yes.

I don't know who Simone is.

DP but why don’t you take it back to Nextdoor with the likeminded curmudgeons. Being a pedant isn’t helping you change any hearts and minds here.

This is a very fascistic sentiment. Next step is what, I should move? Love you people as you somehow have the ability to simultaneously fancy yourselves somehow the “good guys”

The core issue that I notice is that people like you live in an epistemically closed bubble of your own making which takes you to increasingly extreme positions. I understand that it’s hard to be confronted by people who hold different views but you need to grow up and get used to it.

Can someone please post the link for the petition to support the bike lanes? I’m a county resident and I have zero idea where one would find such a thing.

Here is the petition to support the bike lanes: https://www.change.org/p/support-the-sha-redesign-of-old-georgetown-road?redirect=false

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.

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.

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.

Where are the bike lanes? It’s a construction site. They are not there now. Thanks for playing. Keep on lying.

Bike lanes are on top right of that twitter photo. On both sides of the street
Also, the county reconnected Old Georgetown Road to Executive St and reopened that connection which has been closed to driving through since around 1989.

On this google maps photo the bike lanes arent' there, but I was there yesterday riding my bike on the bike lanes that are now on Executive drive.
MD gov did a great thing. Makes biking to Pike and Rose safe.

Where’s the flex posts? These are not protected bike lanes yet. The claim is that they are there now, which is a lie. Thanks for playing.

Nobody said anything about protected bike lanes. Just bike lanes. Which are there. Flex posts aren't protection anyway.

The main issue with the lanes is the 495 ramps which are screwed up by the flex posts. Nice for you to agree that unprotected lanes are sufficient. Remove the flex posts and everyone will be happy. Compromise is great and I thank you for being rationale.

No, remove the flex posts and replace them with concrete or steel bollards or both. Concrete and steel are protection.

So you have changed your tune?

This is just a dumb argument in any case. Simone lied. The bike lanes to Pike & Rose are not complete.

And none of this matters, because SHA are in process of being re-evaluated and will be changed.

You're all tangled up in yourself. Are there bike lanes? Yes. Do they go to Pike and Rose? Yes. Are they protected? No, they are separated. Do people want protected bike lanes? Yes. Is SHA still in the process of installing their bike lanes? Yes. Are there people in Bethesda who support the bike lanes? Yes. Are people advocating for safer roads in other parts of Montgomery County too? Yes.

I don't know who Simone is.

So is paint in an active construction zone good enough for you? Yes or no?

DP but why don’t you take it back to Nextdoor with the likeminded curmudgeons. Being a pedant isn’t helping you change any hearts and minds here.

This is a very fascistic sentiment. Next step is what, I should move? Love you people as you somehow have the ability to simultaneously fancy yourselves somehow the “good guys”

The core issue that I notice is that people like you live in an epistemically closed bubble of your own making which takes you to increasingly extreme positions. I understand that it’s hard to be confronted by people who hold different views but you need to grow up and get used to it.

Fascism is a lot of things, but "I wish you'd post on Internet Communication Platform B instead of Internet Communication Platform A" ain't it.

I also think you're using "epistemically" incorrectly, but I'm not going to argue about it.

If bike lanes near your home are so bothersome then perhaps you should move. People move for many reasons.

I also think you're using "epistemically" incorrectly, but I'm not going to argue about it.

It’s clear that you don’t know what words mean so let me explain them to you.

First, “Fascistic sentiment” does not equal fascism. However, it does imply that application of fascist principles and fascism is an ideology of reaction against, among other things, liberty. So I’ll post where I want, thanks.

Second, the term "epistemic closure" refers political belief systems can be closed systems of deduction, unaffected by empirical evidence. And that perfectly encapsulates you and in particular you demand that I not intrude on what you perceive to be your ideologically closed environment.
