    I normally assume that these signs are information for non-cyclists, in
    this case I'm less sure.

    Well, it's obviously a wheel-bender rack, why would you want to sit on
    a parked bike?

    I can see that from my office window. At least I assume I can,
    since my office window is clearly visible in the picture...

    85% of helmet statistics are made up, 69% of them at CHS, Puget Sound

    But do you ever see any selfish and irresponsible cyclists ignoring
    the sign and riding on regardless?

    's obvious, innit? They're going to build a bridge, and they've
    started with the signs.

    No-one has ever proved that cycle helmets make cycling any safer at
    the population level, and anyway cycling is about as safe per mile as
    walking.

    Presumably the

    DANGER
    deep water

    sign on the right, is for the benefit of anyone thinking
    of wading across instead.

    Putting a pneumatic tyre on those wheels would give you an amphibious
    trike. Being able to take a shortcut up a river would be quite
    neat.
