In recent days, DOT has been implementing its much-discussed plan to make Flushing Avenue along the Navy Yard more friendly to bicyclists. Although the original plan that called for making Flushing a one-way street was shot down, a modified plan that calls for a single two-way bike lane east of Washington and two separate one-way bike lanes west of Washington won widespread support. When we cycled past yesterday morning, the permanent lines were painted as far west as about North Oxford Street.

  1. I cut off a cyclist going the wrong way as I pulled out from stop sign and chewed him out when he had the nerve to complain I didnt wait till he cleared. basically told him I look out and respect the cyclists going the right way and not asswipes who purposely go the wrong way.

    had some run-ins with dumb car drivers too but hey, I’m here to jab at cyclists vs trying to be equitable in badmouthing all (pedestrians, cyclists, motorists,..)

  2. “Although the original plan that called for making Flushing a one-way street was shot down”

    Woohoo! st least SOME agency realizes you need both exits AND entrances to the bridges, and not just a private highway to DUMBO : P
