The eastbound bike lane on St. Patrick just beorfe your cross the Vanier intersection into New Edinburgh. Because the right turn lane for cars is so long, cyclists are required to ride effectively in the middle of the road for a good 200 metres. Which wouldn't be such a bad thing if the road itself didn't slope up and then down thereby hiding cyclists from speeding motorists.Our house is within horn and skidding earshot of the intersection and I cringe everytime I heareither. Someone is going to get killed if it hasn't happened already.
