BMUFL and sharrows


I thought I would remind people that the revision to Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices is still open and there are several purposed reversions that (may) effect bicyclist.

To highlight a couple of things in the revision that may be of major interest:
* BMUFL sign (Bikes May Use Full Lane)
* Sharrow pavement marking

Since Baltimore currently has sharrows it might be interesting for the committee members to hear your thoughts on them. It does not seem clear to me where to put your comments so I think this page is it and click on &quot;Add Comments&quot; <a href="http://www.regulations.gov/fdmspublic/component/main?main=DocumentDetail&amp;o=09000064803815f0">http://www.regulations.gov/fdmspublic/component/main?main=DocumentDetail&amp;o=09000064803815f0</a>;
and be sure to mention the docket number 28977.

This seems to be the best starting point that I have found for the bike related reversions: <a href="http://www.vabike.org/proposed-new-mutcd-for-review/">http://www.vabike.org/proposed-new-mutcd-for-review/</a>;

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
