Well today we saw our first stop sign.
What a bummer.
We have ridden hundreds of kilometers in 6 different cities, across two countries.
And had not seen a single stop sign.

Robin Lewis is a transportation engineer for a medium-sized but rapidly growing city, Bend, Oregon. She has worked together with other staff to: create the City's bicycling master plan which includes a mapped network of low-stress bicycling routes; normalize the use of roundabouts over traffic signals (Bend has 43 and counting); and update the city's standards to require low-stress walking and bicycling facilities, including cross-walks.

Why was it there?

Just a new development put it in, it was a really minor driveway, so no one was sure why the stop sign was there. Since the drivers are not used to it, we didn’t see anyone stop at it!
