[SDCBC] bike paths

[Gene Carman]

Was this a request to a city agency?  I would love to see the weeds 
at the hiway exit on 5 south at Genesee trimmed.  I get in the left 
lane there to make left turns at the top, and the right turning 
motorists approaching at freeway speeds have very short sight lines 
to any cyclist along the right, trying to move left.
