I actually sort of like the ones on the westbound side of the 1100 block of Spaight St. Unless you are an extreme curb-hugger, it's hard not to take the whole lane on either end of the street. I've never ridden down the hill (eastbound); I usually take Jenifer in that direction. Although there are some people who roar up Spaight, spewing their toxic waste to try to save a few seconds from going on car streets, Spaight isn't as bad as some streets, such as the Glenway mentioned here. Mostly, I do dislike them, especially the ones on Hammersley Road, one of the earlier ones. Maybe TE is learning how to design them better.
