Megan Lynch (she/her)A protected cycle lane in Bilbao, Spain.
It's hilly here so the cyclists have bigger thighs or bigger motors...
marius@mariusor Yup. I took the photo from inside a bus so I don't know if they put grit in the paint for traction.
@mariusor Okay, it's raining today so I saw it totally slick. Which means I could see the texturizing in the paint.
I'm not sure if that's as effective as grit would be, but grit would wear down sooner and also take a toll on people's tires.
Not sure how I'd do. As an older disabled person who still hasn't recovered from a (walking) fall last Dec, I take slick surfaces seriously.
I did see deliveristas up in the hills riding today.
