Round 2: Sharrows Appear on the “4th Street Bike Boulevard”
In what has to be a double victory for the Los Angeles County Bike Coalition, reports are coming in that Sharrows are appearing on 4th Street in the Mid-Wilshire and Koreatown areas. The LACBC hasn't just been the leader in pushing for Sharrows on the street, but also in turning 4th Street, a popular bike route, into something resembling the Bike Boulevards of Portland and Berkeley.
Announcing the find on twitter, @danceralamode joked that finding a Sharrow is like a celebrity siting. I'm sure there will be a lot more on the Sharrows arrival as the day and weeks go on. But in the meantime, if you spot a Sharrow while riding in the city, and you're not on Fountain, 4th Street, NELA or Westwood, drop us a line and send us a picture so we can help spread the word.
