The OC Register article was not written by Jim Krause. He, a
self-described weekend cyclist, responded to the OC article by suggesting
curbed-off roadway portions for bicyclists as an appropriate safety
measure for roads with speed limits over 30 mph. Though the OC article by
Gordon Dillow did recommend bike paths and alternative routes for
bicycling. See

I have not looked at the OC register but I would like to share some
thoughts...<br><br>
It might be useful to turn this around so that rather than being
defensive about the needs of cyclists, we thank Mr. Krause (or whoever it
is) for his concern for cyclists and his awareness of the possible
dangers to cyclists if motorists are inattentive or
irresponsible.</font></blockquote><br>
