Hi,
I use bike lanes almost every day, and it has reduced my travel time significantly. It's faster than both taking the subway, and driving. When I do drive, I appreciate that cyclists are in their own lanes and not cycling close to my vehicle in my blind spot. I feel anxious driving on roads where cyclists also ride without bike lanes. Removing bike lanes won't remove the cyclists, but they will make it more dangerous for cyclists and drivers.

Bike lanes have also increased business on streets with bike lanes. People biking past a store are far more likely to stop in and shop than people in cars. There are amply studies that show this.

Keep our bike lanes, and build more bike lanes.
