Bicyclists and beggars can't be choosers, right? Good enough for you with
your bike equipped for dirt roads should be good enough for everyone,
right? So, curb cuts and ramps for handicapped shouldn't be paid for with
public money? So why pave any roads if we can all get SUVs anyway?

Do you have any idea how much money was spent to provide a hugely wide
paved freeway so that people could travel in all weather conditions in
cars at high speed in relative safety - and ban bike use on it?... and
you think a dirt path connector that no money have been spent on is just
fine for bicycling? <br><br>
If you wish to reduce paving of the planet, how about considering a
rational allocation of the use of the existing and future pavement; are
you in support of the current allocation of more for car travel and none
for bicycling?<br><br>
Just wondering... <br><br>

What, exactly is the big deal? It's a trail! If you
insist on using a road bike, then take another route or buy a mtn.
bike. Personally, I'm happy with it as is and see
absolutely nothing to complain about. But then again, I don't want
the planet paved over just for the sake of a few highly vociferous,
special rear bumpers don't get jostled.
