I used to bike commute pretty regularly till they started working on Bee Caves. I was discouraged b/c the lack of lines meant cars were buzzing by me and there was more debris on the roads so I was worried about getting flats. Now that the construction is finished I find that they have dramatically repainted the shoulders b/w the 360 and Barton Creek Blvd. to where it is only a 3 foot shoulder/gutter. Downtown I don't mind using these bikelanes or taking the lane when necessary. But I worry about the speeds here (usually 65+mph).
I think they are also working on 360. Will they renovate the shoulders in similar fashion? Perhaps I'm distressed w/ change and feel depressed not having biked to work in a while as it started the day in a positive fashion. Is there anything we can do? Can we at least get a Shareway or some Bicycle signs up?
Thanks for the breadth and depth of advice!
Hi,
I would like to make a more consistent use of the bike for commuting.
The one fear I have is getting stuck on the road w/ a mechanical problem I can't solve at 6 in the morning.
(I am BTW comfortable w/ changing flats etc. and to a lesser extent opening and reassembling chains)
I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for taxi companies?
Particularly ones w/ vans/mini-vans. I can pop my bike in the back of a Honda Odyssey w/out requiring any disassembling.
I'm sure that some companies aren't too keen about transporting a bike (dirt/chain etc) but I'm hoping there would
be some that are more pro-cyclist.
My bike is a recumbent so I feel a van would be better than a Taxi.
Again, I hope I don't need this; but I want to feel secure that there's a backup plan.
Getting home from work isn't that much of an issue as I'd have the day to find a friend to pick me up.
Thanks.
