Re: GCCMail: NW 39th - this is living

FYI -- there's a 50' stretch on the south side of 39th avenue that is
missing this brand new bike lane. Right around NW 120th street (by the
power lines).
Last Wednesday evening I came upon that stretch in the dark. I was
doing about 25mph courtesy of the downhill, and I wound up running off
the road and going kersplat. I'll spare everyone the gory details,
except to say that there were no marker cones warning of the impending
lack of bike lane (I guess someone took them).
I have put in a call to the county to let them know there were no
markers. While almost every inch of NW 39th does have a nice bike lane,
the south side (east bound) is missing 50', and you need to be aware of it.
Special thanks need to go to Jayson for picking my splattered butt up
off the pavement.
