Bike Sharrows Added in Old Town Temecula


The City of Temecula showed off its new Bike Sharrows (bike symbol and arrows painted on the street to let motorists and cyclists know they are sharing the lane) on May 10. Thanks to Councilmen Naggar and Washington for riding with us.

I am posting a link to my YouTube video of the ride.

The sharrows have been proven to resolve motorist/cyclist tensions in other places. We rode with Temecula city planners on a field trip to Long Beach where sharrows on busy Ocean Avenue reduced the number of complaints to nearly zero, without painting a bicycle lane! They are used where there isn't room for lane.

So c'mon Temecula motorists, share the road!
