I still don't understand why mountain bikers are literally afraid of cars. I'd feel worse dying by falling off a mountain than dying because a car hit me. Like I also feel safer knowing the 2 ton bullet that might kill me has a person who is afraid of insurance rates going up.
Oh you can have both where I live. This is the Google street view of the bike lane in my neighborhood. The elevation drops from 107 feet to 66 feet right here where there's no railing, but where there often IS a trash can in the way. It's a blind corner and the cars are going 40 mph at best.
