Re: Pleasant St and Pillsbury Dr Roundabout
The Minnehaha roundabout is one the worst places for bikes in the city. Mainly because bikes are obviously the slower vehicle and are supposed to stay on the right in general, but that's the wrong place for them if they are going to the 2nd or 3rd right turn (I hope that made sense). And I hope tha...

Re: Bicycle Infrastructure
I use a section of Minneahaha everyday. I do love it, but the section I am on (and many other sections) have quite dangerous intersections. If I was playing the role of an inexperienced cyclists, I can think of about 4/5 intersections that are quite dangerous. For that reason, I prefer West Mississi...

Re: U of M Bike Trail
Any idea when the U of M Bikeway will officially open? I may or may not have taken a pre-opening tour the other day and it looked pretty much good to go.

Re: Chicago Avenue - Powderhorn (Lake St to 42nd St)
38th/Chicago also has the Fire Arts center ( http://www.cafac.org/ ), which is a cool and unique amenity. It is seemingly one of the more "artist friendly" intersections in South, due to the proximity to reasonable cheap housing and cheap retail spaces. I had not heard of the Arts on Chica...

Re: Cedar Ave / Minnehaha Pkwy
Are you implying Carbone's may be moving across the street to that new building? That would be nice. They could potentially get a patio, of which South is lacking many good options. and update the... "classic" interior design of the current building.
