75. Directions

I have no problem with municipal promotion of bicycling, but this sign is just silly.  For one thing, the Capitol Hill the sign refers to is just two blocks up the street, over a freeway--it's not like there is any other way to get there from this starting point.  Moreover, cyclists in this city of hills and rain are pretty determined; casual cyclists a rare breed.  We're independent; we'll decide what routes we take, one-way streets and directional signs notwithstanding.
