Sand and gravel are drifting back onto the path making it dangerous for bicycles to ride through.
Sand and gravel are drifting back onto the path making it dangerous for bicycles to ride through.
Sand and gravel blocking the multi-use path on the bypass near N Dunn St. I dare anyone to bike through this on a road bike. Isn't there a regulation that says the owner of the property must keep the path clear? Sand and gravel are constantly accumulating there.
Trying to cross here on foot or bike is a complete clusterfuck!!!
Just an observation: I noticed in the municipal rules for Bloomington bicycling, that Tricycles are still listed as toys and exempt from the regular rules , and in some cases prohibited from the regular rules of the bicyclists. I feel as though a clarification may be needed, as there are tricycles that are not toys in the familiar sense. My "bike" has 3 wheels and has the ability to keep pace with road traffic in some areas of town. The wheel size on my trike is 20", and by no means a kids play toy in the conventional sense as my top speed is about 50 MPH (yes, non-motorized) Thank you for you consideration into looking into the update of the language for tricycle definition. Sincerely Randy Craw, proud owner of a modified for speed, recumbent, Catrike, road edition bike.
The ramps leading to the underpass have not been cleaned from snow nor ice. This problem was present yesterday morning and evening as well.
Not exactly sure what the point of a bike lane is if cyclists will regularly have to swerve in and out of it. This is probably why everyone rides on the sidewalk on S Walnut
Broken glass
Railing damaged at the east end of the underpass.
Sidewalk covered in gravel and mud 312 e 8th st
Debris in the bike lane got into my front wheel and caused damage. Bike lanes really need to be cleaner. I wasn't hurt, but it could have been much worse.
