Down To Earth

Need a bike lane? This is how you make your own!

Warning: Don't try this. Seriously. I'm not advocating for creating your own bike lane. I was talking to a local bike geek last night, Stephen, a recent transplant to Spokane, about this topic. Except we discussed bike lanes getting removed in Williamsburg - only to be repainted by protesters. This is different. Way different.

For clarification, this is from "Safety First" a video art installation in Prague by Vladimir Turner. So it's not an actual solution to the lack of bike lanes. 
 

Again, I really don't recommend projecting a custom bike lane off the front of your bike. The way he rides - on the sidewalk, staircase, etc. -  into a protected lane. That said, it's cool to watch Turner turn the Prague streets into his own cycling dream.
