Almost convinced me until u wrote "Protected routes for bikes create opportunities for other small vehicles that travel at similar speeds." I"m on my bike in Boston area 7 days/wk & I use bike shares. E-bikes are fine; just too fast for bike lanes

What is your definition of ebike? Mine is pedal assist and goes the same speed but with less effort (and sweat). No idea how that can make anybody uncomfortable.

I sometimes worry that fast cyclists don't have enough space to overtake slower ones safely. But in those case we should just slow down until it is safe to pass. If we ever get to the point of bicycle congestion, then... Give them more space!

I agree, I'm a fast(er) cyclist who passes others, but I would so love it if bike congestion was such that I had to just slow down and go with the flow. It's not just about me or you. We need to continuously ask how we can make transportation better for the most people.
