Yeah my city has actually started to build real bike lanes with bollards and curbs to separate traffic and even their own signaling and it’s a blast to bike on those roads. The others fucking suck.
I frickin love protected bike lanes. Turns a stressful experience into a downright pleasant one. It feels 10000x safer than riding on streets without protection.
You should still wear a helmet. It isn’t there for cars, it’s there because going from biking speed to no speed is more than enough acceleration to cause injury.

I don’t even need to wear a helmet since I’m going so slow and don’t need to worry about being blasted by a semi.
