Friday, 26 January 2018, was a lovely sunny warm day, and I finally
wash-in-bleached the bin of dish towels and cleaning rags and dried
them in the sun. Not a prolonged stay in the sun because it was also
windy, and even rags shouldn't be blown into rags.

The day was rather spoiled when the morning paper arrived that
evening. The City of Warsaw is going to put a two-way "cycle track"
between the parked cars and the sidewalk on the south side of the
downtown end of Market Street.

And I thought that putting in a wide sidewalk on this end of the
street and calling it a bikeway was bad! At least nothing will need
to be ripped out when they find out what a dangerous idea that was.`

'course, they may never find out that it's dangerous -- I haven't seen
any riders on the "bikeway" so far: no riders, no crashes.

On the other hand, ever since the "improvement" I've only crossed
Market, never ridden along it. There could have been a bicycle I
didn't see or didn't notice.
