@Jen:

Well, no. The idea is to establish bike infrastructure to encourage more biking, get bikes off the sidewalks, and perhaps reduce the number of cyclists on streets with no cycling infrastructure.

Not sure where you got the idea that it would mean bike-free traffic lanes everywhere else. If we added a couple of new lanes to I-95 between DC and Baltimore, it shouldn't really surprise you when you encounter a car on the BW Parkway, right? I saw a guy on a bike on Pennsylvania Ave, SE the other day--even with bike lanes on East Capitol Street. Not surprising.

Bike lanes & such are great if they take you where you want to go; if you're going somewhere else, not so much.
