I noticed the newly refinished bowie st. along the new whole foods has 
absolutely no accomodation for bikes.  i expected a bike lane, but all i 
see is a row for parking, a crazy small left turn lane, and regular 
traffic lanes.  Is this odd to anyone?  Whole Foods has one of the busiest 
bike racks around this area, so I expect a lot of traffic there.  I assume 
they provide bike parking on the Lamar side, but still seems (just a guess 
really) like that part of bowie will be a dangerous little stretch.  This 
is more of a whole foods issue than a extension bridge issue, but...

Also out of curiosity, where exactly on Bowie would one emerge from the 
underpass?  It wasn't clear to me from the map.

Thanks,
Mark Haller
