"The divider between the bicycle path and the road does have a slope though (a sort of "A" shaped cross section), so I think that would be hard to hit. Unless you mean the "median strips" on the entries/exits.

Since this has happened for a few other councils... has anyone done any research on the candidates for Marion Council elections, regarding their policies on cycling?Continue
Fooled by the weather radar

Tonight a glance at weather radar looked all clear (very much like this screenshot from after I got home). But it had me fooled, and it steadily drizzled pretty well all the way home. So does rain…Continue
Is it legal to ride on the footpath when there is a bicycle lane present?

The question says it all! Today a police officer cautioned me. (He said this applies to footpaths, not shared paths).I tried to politely say that isn't how I'd seen the law presented, but I let it go…Continue

"Regarding the "too narrow" criticism... for the section that goes along Railway Terrace (as in my first two photos), they probably didn't have a lot of choice, because there was only a finite amount of road width to work with. (Though…"
"Actually it bypasses 18 intersections. I forgot about the older section south of Sixth Ave. So now Marion Council has put a separated bikeway the entire length of Railway Tce (Cross Road to Daws Road), only crossing the 4 east-west roads which cross…"
"Finally, there is this narrow nasty section near the Railway Tce / Castle Street roundabout. It's not obvious from this first photo, but the path goes around the pine tree in the middle of this photo and joins the older, wider path adjacent to…"
"I went on took photos after reading this. The bikeway is in 4 sections (north to south: Cross Rd - Delaine Ave, Delaine Ave - Angus Ave, Angus Ave - Raglan Ave, and Raglan Ave - Sixth Ave). Strangely, the concrete median strip is on only 2 of the 8…"

I have managed to work out a commute route which almost entirely avoids bus routes. But back when I didn't, I remember I always made a point of overtaking a bus as widely as possible, or waiting behind it.…"

"As Jilden says, a good option is to take your bike on the train.
Here in Adelaide, bikes are allowed on trains at any time. (In some other states in Australia, they are not allowed in peak hours). A bike far is the same as concession fare, which is…"
"Thanks for that.
You might get a wider readership on the Facebook "Adelaide Cyclists" group. I think there might be a facebook group for stolen bicycles in Adelaide too."
"Where is it?
I'd give them partial points for trying. The trouble is where the arrow really should be painted, is also where the markings are for the pedestrian crossing."
