"Stupidest Bike Lane in America" Found in LA

Slate magazine claims to have found the "stupidest bike lane in America"... down in LoCal, of course.

We here at SFist like to think that a bike lane is a bike lane, and that a short bike lane is still better than no bike lane. And no bike lane, of course, is what San Francisco has added since the City tried to short-cut environmental review and got nabbed by anti-bike gadfly Rob Anderson, whose suit resulted in an injunction against the addition of new bike lanes.

Slate challenges readers to find a stupider bike lane than the 275' of Gayley Avenue in Westwood. We found one right on our block. It doesn't exist at all, and that's pretty stupid.

Thats nothing compared to http://homepage.ntlworld.com/pete.meg/wcc/facility-of-the-month/October2007.htm

And of course you should check out the many other splendid examples of bike lane designs on the site. Really makes you wonder "what were they thinking???"
