TKC BREAKING NEWS!!! KANSAS CITY EXPANDS BIKE LANES!!! USELESS IN WINTER & MOSTLY EMPTY YEAR-ROUND!!!
Whilst this town suffers pothole blight causing drivers and EPIC amount of damage this year, City Hall ramps up spending thanks to a lobby of corrupt locals working to fund their own "non-profit" jobs.
A recent look at Armour Road bike lanes . . .

2019 Bike KC Master Plan
- KC currently has 25 miles of protected bike lanes and bike paths and has plans to construct an additional 365 miles of them.
- KC currently has 24 miles of painted bike lanes and plans to build an additional 134 miles.
- KC currently has 154 miles of shared streets/bike routes and plans to build an additional 66 miles.
Basically, they plan to expand from 203 total miles of bike infrastructure to 658 miles in the coming years, with the vast majority being protected bike lanes and bike paths.
You decide . . .
Better known as the hipster full employment plan!
ReplyDeleteAnother totally obvious con job on the taxpaying public.
ReplyDeleteAnd only $400 Million! For paint!
ReplyDeleteI though Eric Bunch of BikeWalk promised his bike lanes on Armour, a block away from his home by the way would be meticulously maintained? Doesn't look like it in that pic.
ReplyDeleteBoth Fire and Police Budgets in 2019 total less then what Bike Lanes will get next few yars, there's something seriously wrong with this council.

ReplyDeleteto bad we don't have more bus shelters while waiting for the bus and not be in the rain and snow
Just when you think the city is all out of dumb ideas..... voilá
ReplyDeleteIs that ever true Hyper!
ReplyDeleteBike lanes catering to the homosexual bike riders. If you’re riding a bike in a bike lane, you might as well admit that you are a homosexual.

ReplyDeleteKansas City is not that kind of a city. This is a waste, and people around here won't put up with bikers disobeying the laws on the road. Bikers beware!
4:03 is that a threat to run someone over with your car??? Damn dude you need to check your resentment and rage. Don't hate a cyclist just because they are fit and you look like ten pounds of shit in a five pound bag. Also the cyclists you see are not the same as bicycle activists who push these silly fads. Thanks,

Yeah I hate it that the city is spending $124 million on bike lanes the next two years.
ReplyDeleteThe bike lane users will probably start bitching that there's too much salt residue in their precious bike lanes making it hard to ride over. They tried that shit about the sand in Seattle and became targets. Fuck 'em I hope they all get flat tires.
ReplyDeleteBike lanes... in the Killer City. Nope. Too damn dangerous. You'll get run over, shot or both.
ReplyDeleteOnly idiots or drunks that lost their license will use them.
Hey Radish go fuck yourself bitch!
ReplyDelete4:03 said nothing of the kind you lowlife loser.
When this country becomes the socialist utopia envisioned by the virtuous, KC's preparing the bike lanes will seem prescient.
ReplyDeleteTriggered much, 7:12? No 4:03 didn't make a specific threat but it was certainly implied and I'm sure even at your third grade reading level you could comprehend that. Radish called out a chickenshit keyboard warrior comment. As a cyclist, father, and TAXPAYER, I would hope someone would never actually run another human being over out of spite, but I'm not so sure anymore judging by these comments. By the way I think the bike lanes are fucking stupid.
ReplyDeletemaybe they can pave over the potholes while they're at it.
ReplyDeleteThey should use that money for a LGBT parade instead.
ReplyDeleteThanks comment@ 8:40
ReplyDeleteThankfully the vast majority of KC motorists are very courteous when they see me riding. Mostly just distractions and carelessness. But there are a few aggressive assholes to be sure but not as many as you might think judging by the rage-outs from internet comment tough guys on this blog. And yes the armour bike lanes are silly I could give you ten reasons or more. I don’t know what it is about urban transit planners and why they are so vulnerable to chasing ridiculous fads.

The squeaky well literally gets the tax payers grease.
