Bismarck roads and driving

[SDMF]

ND, East of Edgeley 8-10 miles

I know where it is, my dad grew up there. Dad’s uncle had the gas station/auto repair shop. I can’t remember any restaurant, the bar must’ve served food?

If you dont like the stupid bike lanes, support candidates who oppose them like Connelly... We have a bunch of lefties in the city commission currently.

I don't remember the particulars but I think there was a food truck that set up by the bar or hall. There was some construction crews around they were feeding. One of the bikers was maybe a local and knew about it, not sure.

You are right, no restaurant/cafe in Berlin. The bar had pizzas and frozen sandwiches. The last owner I believe was Greg Pederson

And the Ellingson's owned the gas station/ repair shop

We have bike trails around lake Metigoshe right beside the road and a few bikers still use the road. It grinds my gears since there's no safe place to pass up there, especially when pulling a boat. I say If they use tax payers money to fund a bike trail then at least make it mandatory for bikes to use them. I usually roll down my window and give them hell and they give me a dumb look like they just fell off the turnip wagon.

I think there may be some rules about bikers supposed to use the bike lanes, and also cars can be fined for driving on them, but not one follows those because really there are maybe 100 bikers out of the 70k residents and even they can only use them like 5 months out of the year or whatever unless they are ultra hardcore... Its just stupid

I can't believe @Average_NDA_Member hasn't weighed in on this dumpster fire of a thread.

Thank goodness

no idea, youd have to axe him about that. Ive just talked to him personally about the bike lane stuff and know hes on board with it being a dumb idea.

My Grandparents own the farmstead to the south of Berlin on 13. Your grandmother is good friends with my grandmother.

Glen and Darryl Ellingson were good people.

I can recall being very young calling Glen, “Uncle Berlin” rather than uncle Glen.

RN and DVN are the two ladies I can remember being @ grandma and grandpa’s house as “grandma’s friends”.

if you don't like the traffic in Bismarck try drive around in off peak traffic, my work hours are off peak and I've got no complaints. I did do 30 years of metro Detroit traffic, you all are insulated if you ask me... but that is an insulted argument,

It’s still not that great on off peak hours either. It’s better yes but still can’t figure out why you sit at red lights on arterial roads when zero cars are at the intersection.

Well that may very well be….. but you can’t communicate your thoughts worth a shit. Please explain what in the actual phuck you are trying to say here.

You stop for a red light then proceed through it when there's no danger. I've done it with cops. I hope you're in no danger as I'm due at least two punches in the face.

I thought the statement was pretty obvious.. perhaps for a thinking man.
