[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agreed that building another Ward 3 north-south bike trail makes the most sense on Wisconsin Ave or Reno Rd., not on Connecticut Ave.[/quote] Except Reno doesn't have any commerical activity and doesn't really connect anything. You end up at Mass Ave and then what? Wisconsin has a huge hill in its narrowist part coming out of Georgetown and then obviously goes up to Western, but there aren't easy connections to downtown and the grade difference coming up Mass or Wisconsin to the Cathedral is not really an "easy ride" for most people.[/quote] I don't know, Reno connects fine for most purposes -- take a safe bike lane on Reno to the cross-street where the store you're going to intersects Connecticut, and then you're there. It's like two blocks from Connecticut. I'd take bike lanes on Reno over no bike lanes at all, which is what we're going to get now. [/quote]
