We need to find a way to tax bicycles to help pay for all the designated infrastructure

Simple, cyclists: Don’t like it, don’t use it.

And we all get to pay for it anyway.

Legal plunder at its best.

opposition from neighbors who refuse to have the trail on their side of the wall.

NIMBY libs that don't want to see sweaty bicyclists in ugly spandex.

"...and exposed to toxic exhaust fumes"

Do they think people in the cars are breathing bottled oxygen or something?

Cyclists in my area already ride like they were the only ones on the road.

.
Bicycles can no longer be considered a serious mode of general transportation. They are a form of sport, or amusement, and need to be removed from all major public thoroughfares.

What a bunch of pu$$ies.

I-66 “expansion” is to enlarge the road to 3 - OMG - 3 lanes over the 2 that Arlington County demanded when the highway was built in the early sixties. They thought 3 lanes would bring in too much traffic — not kidding.

Meanwhile, auto fumes from the perpetual traffic jam have clearly turned bicycle advocates into utter fools. I’ve ridden along there plenty and this is just stupid.

When the bikers pay for it, they can have it.

I grew up in McLean way back. I-66 ended at the beltway, though they had condemned the land and removed houses all the way to Arlington. For many years there were vacant neighborhoods with only remnants of houses, like a few concrete steps leading to nowhere. Even though I grew up and learned to drive there, I cannot navigate up there any longer.

I once got hauled to jail by the cops when I attempted to hitchhike back to UVA where 66 left the beltway, even though I was in the grass on the entrance ramp. My Dad was pissed at the cops.

The bike path, part of the $2.3 billion interstate expansion project...

Does anyone else have the "What the hell?" reaction to the idea that a bicycle path is a logical addition to interstate funding?

2.3 billion so that politicians can whiz around the cesspool easier but they can only scrape together enough money for 74 miles of fence or wall for 2000 miles of border fence.

Effing traitors one and all.
