Bike lanes aren’t just for cyclists, and actually it can pretty easily argued that a basically insignificant number of the users are hardcore cyclists. Where I live a bicycle is simply one of the best ways to get around and people will just use the great bikeshare program to get around.

So yea, nothing to do with someone’s hobby, and most everyone who wants to see a bike lane also wants everything else. What we’re all mad about is that bike lanes are so fucking easy to do and yet you’ll never see a temper tantrum like when you ask for a road that’s way wider than it needs to be to have one installed.
