Ridgewood : “bike lanes would only be for experienced bikers”

Bike Lane Traffic Easing Ridgewood

Readers say , “No one missed Rurik. No one. And we had plenty of insanity without him being there. Chris Rutishauser (he of the ghetto palms) and Jeanne Johnson (she of the ridiculous bike lanes) provided ample idiocy for one evening.

The dynamic duo of Chris and Jeanne should take their show on the road showing people how to accomplish nothing while antagonizing everyone. Also, the Bike Lane To No Where is hazardous to bikers as well as drivers. In stead of calming traffic, it makes us all annoyed and irritated!

Miss Jeanne actually said that the bike lanes would only be for experienced bikers (ie dangerous). Oh hell yes, this makes sense. Let’s put bike lanes that are dangerous for all but the most experienced bikers. Ummmm what happens when an inexperienced driver comes alongside an experienced biker. This whole thing is a disaster waiting to happen. Thank God it probably will not happen.

Jeanne Johnson was out of control ridiculous. And Rutishauser too. Who the hell do they think they are trying to pressure the council to sign off on a grant application when they have not seen the plans. Memo to Ruishauser: Aronsohn and Sonenfeld sent out grant applications that were filled with lies. This council does not play that way.”

  1. The bike lane benefits few. There are a handful of hardy souls who bike to the train. No one is biking to town to shop or for dinner. When do you see kids bike into town? I doubt the bike path is for them and I would not want to see teens trying to navigate the mean streets of Ridgewood.

    A bike lane through the town is a crazy pipe dream. If anything a bike lane should skirt the town not go through it.

    Downtown Ridgewood is a dangerous place for pedestrians. Add in bike lanes and you have a recipe for disaster.

  2. It was clear from the very beginning of this money-wasting boondoggle that it would eventually have to be ripped out, including the unnecessarily wider divider between eastbound and westbound traffic that replaced an original wider design with foliage. Rutishauser was kowtowing to Aronsohn as usual but he really should be removed.

  3. Traffic calming isn’t supposed to calm drivers, it’s “the deliberate slowing of traffic in residential areas.”

  4. Pucciarelli was also a big fan of this stupid plan. And of course Roberta was salivating over it constantly, while intermittently saying Chris Chris Chris like e middle schooler in love. What a f’ed up,design from start to finish.

  5. Nobody was speeding there. That spot was inappropriate for whatever they were claiming to do just to get another construction project on Aronsohn’s “send money for my next political endeavor” list.

  6. All True Ped take life in their hands
    Crossing any street on top or at bottom of this mousetrap

    Ped crossing on top should be resticted to bagel store side only

  7. The only reason the bike lane was installed was to extort state and federal tax dollars towards the project.
    Of course liberal progressive politicians love to spend other people’s money…ours!
    The government is out of control.
    Let’s make American financially solvent again…
    20 Trillion in debt for our children
    Nice!
