I have on numerous occasions considered ordering bike route signage to place up on bike safe routes. The city has official signs for it but puts basically none up. If I could just order a lot more to put up it could encourage more folks to join.

    I'm French, so we have the standard European signs, which should be easy enough to order 👀

    You don't have bike routes in France?

    We do have them, but not enough of them 😈

    Huh, that's a bit surprising to me. I moved from a small non-highway connected town last year, and there was a pedestrian and bike path the entire 32 kilometre way from that town to the bigger nearby city.

    Wonder how many bike that distance. Honestly must be a really nice path to bike in the summer.

    I'd say the problem is more bad bike paths than no bike paths.

    Nowhere near as bad as in the US, but many places still have bike paths that just suddenly end, painted bike «gutters» on busy streets...

    Overall it's pretty good, but quite inconsistent.

    France, while still seeing progress, is heavily car-focused. You'll see car streets in cities that can barely fit an Aygo. I only know as a tourist, though, so it might be better in areas I haven't visited.
