Your thoughts?

^ Difficult to achieve because of poor planning from our Gov't. Widening nga hirap na hirap na eh.

[renzo_d10]

Nahh no need.

Ok na yung motorcycle lane. Bikes aren't that "hazardous" as compared to motorcycles.

[tomboy]

Ok ito pero sa greenhills area to tiendesitas sana.

Sa edsa possible lang kung elevated bike lane tabi ng mrt.

natumbok mo pre.

nasa planning yan. pero sabi ko nga magaling naman ang pinoy sa planning. mahina lang sa implementation.

dine sa place ko abroad, may ginagawa silang kalasada. minor street lang na pwede nilang gawing 4 lanes for vehicles. pero ang ginawa nila 2 lanes for vehicles, then 2 lanes as sidewalk and probably for bicycles (one lane at each side of the road). lapad ng sidewalk nila.

sa atin malabo mangyari yun.

pero despite this, I'm all for bicycle lanes. piliin na lang yung kalsada at route na safe sa bikers at the ibang motorists. again planning!!!

[renzo_d10]

dito naman kasi saatin malapad sana sidewalk tatayuan lang ng kung anu-anong stall....

*naghahanapbuhay lang po*

To retrofit a bike lane into existing narrow-laned roads will be either difficult or impossible. In the end, it would just result in more congestion problems. If you want (exclusive) bike lanes, it has done at the planning stage for roads.

Sorry to say, I am against this "bike-lane" drive as it is. It is short sighted, half-baked and lacks wider scale planning to make it potentially effective.

[Chikselog]

Napakapangit kasi ng mga kalsada natin. Di suitable ang bike lanes. Kung meron mang pwedeng lagyan, iilan lang.

[vinj]

If you ask me, the bike lanes should not be along the road but through parks and pedestrian walkways.

MMDA tried bike lanes in QC before. All we got was one mess of painted lines on the designated streets which were already narrow to begin with.

agree.
sa beijing may bakod (mababa) yung bike lanes, para safe yung mga bikers.

[ecneret]

bike lanes?? di na siguro. kurakoteers lang ang makikinabang dyan!

[DonCamote]

Bike lanes - one vote from me. It will make the roads safer for the bicycle riding people. If it is only safe to commute to work daily, I would gladly leave the car at home and ride a bike to work. Exercise and good for the environment.

[pop3corn]

hindi naman nakakatipid ang bike lanes eh bukod nasa gagastusin ng gobyerno sa infrastructure, yun mga nag-babike din din naman makakatipid kasi ilang damit kelangan mo dalhin to work, yun pang-bike, tapos yun pang-office. so dalawang labahan din, unless comfortable kayo pumasok ng office amoy araw.

sa tubig lang na mauubos ng mga bikers sa labada, di ko alam kumbakit di nila ma-compute. tapos syempre nagbike ka, lose calories. so lagi lamon to the max yan. so ganun din mapapalakas ka lang kumain.

yan mga misplaced priorities na yan in guise of going green. kung gusto nyo mag-bike like China, palamigin nyo muna Pilipinas noh.

palpak pa productivity mo dyan, kasi bukod nasa pagod ka umaga pa lang, stressed na katawan mo and you will never be efficient at work. kung ako supervisor, i-discriminate ko mga employees na nag-bike sa work, unless as in tipong 5 blocks away lang sya nakatira.

[Helios]

nah, some people at the office bike all the way to work. i know little of them but they sure look very fit to me. this female designer is hawt, sure she stinks before she takes a shower at work but she looks great with her helmet and shorts on. i sure wish i could steal a snapshot of her one time, anyways, some folks on two wheels are cool so i agree they should have their own lane. unfortunately, we don't have that infrastructure to accommodate a minority's safety requirement. heck, even street vendors and peds fight daily for that sliver of space alongside moving vehicles. perhaps areas around malls and parks may be able to squeeze in that lane to ease traffic and improve the urban aesthetic

ang bike mo nga dapat dito sa manila yun mountain bike kasi napka lubak ng daan kahit simentado ilan lang yun makinis na patag...
sana yun mga under develop cities dito pinas include nila yun bicycle lane..

[frenchtower]

The idea and intention is good, but like in facebook ...IT'S COMPLICATED! :-)

[EuroFD]

Just signed up. Too bad only 355 have signed up for the petition. Very far from the 10,000+ Tour of the Fireflies attendance last year.

[pop3corn]

isa pa yan di lang sa labada, pati yun pag-shower dami nauubos sa water supply natin pag say 10,000 to 100,000 ang magbababike. tapos pag naaksidente, mas magastos. i'm sure magmamahal din ang insurance ng mga tsikot pag may bike lane kasi mas malaki ang damage ng insurance companies pag aksidente

at this day and age, bikes are a thing of the past. there is a reason why Henry Ford invented the autmobile in the late 1800's to replace bikes. and there is a reason why horses were replaced by bikes. ibig sabihin they are phased out.

kung gusto nyo bike lane, i-lobby nyo na kagad sa congress dun sa Clark and Sta Rosa and other special economic zones para magkarun kagad ng planning. dito kasi sa Manila para unrealistic eh, parang nag-green kuno lng para mapansin lang ba. o nakaranas ng konti relief sa pawis sa pagbaba-bike eh kelangan eh yun na ang tama. hello, i perspire in the gym everyday, I am more fit than those bikers who climb sierra madre with their SUVs and bike rack and MTB as bike gears.

imagine para lang pumayat, halos P100,000K+ na nagastos , eh sa gym la pang 20K / month. tapos wala din nman pumapayat kasi hindi naman talaga effective ang weekend biking. exercise and getting fit cannot be resolved during free times and weekends. living healthy is a lifestyle.

[ghosthunter]

Just drove across the "Sunday cycling zone" that is Emerald Ave in Ortigas Ave and peeked to see how many people are there. So few people enjoying the "fresh air".

I cannot see how a dozen or so people cycling in circles can justify closing a major road in Ortigas Center.
