Three obvious ways jump out at me...
1) Use the visitor lane and wait for the gate to lift;
2) Use your card for the resident gate, not particularly the easiest option for a bike rider;
3) Just ride past the end of the gate without lifting the gate...there is typically plenty of space between the end of the gate and the posts.
What do you riders typically do? (And are there other options that I'm not thinking of?)
Also, it is understood that none of these options should ever interfere in any way with vehicular traffic. And there are plenty of threads talking about the streets vs MMP's for bicycles. I'd appreciate it if this thread could avoid that topic also...unless of course some of it is relevant to the question posed.
Thanks for your thoughts, opinions, and experiences.  |
I typically use #3 but when its busy i try to use #1..Either way i proceed with extreme caution and ride slowly.
