DESCRIPTION:Join your fellow bicyclists for a group ride to demand the City Council 
 support "Bike May Use Full Lane" signs on Mission Street. \n\nStarting at 
 the town Clocktower @ 6pm this Tuesday, we'll be taking up the right lane 
 of Mission Street, and eventually ending the ride at the City Council 
 Meeting. \n\nBackground:\n\nTwo experienced cyclists have been killed on 
 Mission Street in the last year. Both of these deaths could have been 
 avoided had the City designed the street 6 years ago with bike lanes. Both 
 of these deaths could also have been avoided if the cyclists had felt safe 
 riding in the middle of the right hand lane.\n\nAccording to California 
 Vehicle Code Section 21202, cyclists may use the full right lane when the 
 lane "is too narrow for a bicycle to safely ride to the side of a motor 
 vehicle." Two deaths occurred while cyclists were riding along the curb. 
 It's outrageous for anyone to claim that these lanes are wide enough to 
 ride safely side-by-side.\n\nCaltrans is ready to cooperate with the City. 
 Now it's up to us to convince the Council to follow through! Bicyclists all 
 over the country are watching this struggle for the basic civil right to 
 safely use a commercial street. Let's make it happen!\n\n
