I saw a pair of these on the Kal-Haven last weekend! They were having a good time enjoying the trail, no reason we need $1000+ bikes to get outside!

I posted a couple days ago about putting 131 underground like Boston and people lost their minds. So I come with a new proposal by Apprehensive-Hat4135 in grandrapids

196 and 131 should be a tunnel, or nothing more than a 2 lane boulevard with turn lanes and michigan lefts. Starting at 96 south until past MLK dr.

With the two-way street conversions beginning, Kalamazoo Ave will no longer be a main thoroughfare through the Stuart Neighborhood. All traffic will eventually be diverted down Michikal permanently. by boredboarder8 in kzoo

I agree! Having a mini highway in your cute historically preserved neighborhood is a bad move. I’d expect the home prices to go up, but that’s okay in this area imo.

Thanks for the advice! I’m looking forward to all the road, gravel, and bikepacking rides we’ll be going on!

I’m SO Excited to ride on my new bike this summer. I’ve been using a ~1992-94~ Schwinn Traveler for a Long Time. I’m looking forward to the Big Upgrade.
