I just sent an email to Indycog, a cycling advocacy group in the cith that works with the mayor's office with respect to bike commuting and its infrastructure. I happen to park every day in a federal employee lot that interfaces with one of the bike lanes in downtown Indy. My fellow employees are in desperate need for some additional education in how to interface with the bike lane, as most tend to block it as they pull into the lot and wait at the guard station we have to pass through. Everyday, I see cyclists who are either confused or POed at having to navigate around it. Two years ago, I emailed someone at the helm of the bikeways project about the situation and got no response. I'm hoping this round goes better. I'm happy to help facilitate a bit of outreach between the city and the federal employees who park in the lot, but I obviously need the city to be part of that.

Anyway, fingers crossed.

On a related topic, I just read a letter to the editor complaining about two other bike lanes in the city. While I applaud Indy's current mayor for making bike commuting a priority, the execution of his projects have left a lot to be desired. Two steps forward, one back.....
