Shawn Arcidino from Atomic Collision said the bike lanes made parking cars in front of his shop hard ... "I'm not anti-bike lane. I want everyone to be happy, but I also don't want you to come in here and tell me, 'this is what you're going to like,'" Arcidino said.

Arcidino saw two rear-end crashes in front of his shop after the bike lane installation.

Probably two assholes who parked in the middle of the street to "just run in for a sec."

So, basically, he wants to have bike lanes but, like, magical bike lanes that don't take up any space or impinge on car traffic in any way.

"I'm not a NIMBY, I just think they should build somewhere else"

It sucks.

In Midtown KC we have some great bike lanes, well-designed. Either there's a concrete curb protecting the lane or they've set it up so where there was once a driving lane, cars can now parallel park next to the bike lane, and end up serving as a physical barrier.

And TBH, we all know the gas prices are never going back down. Bike lanes should be proliferating MORE quickly now, not less, because bikes and e-transportation are only going to become more attractive options in the coming years.
