Is this the Collier St. near Carnegie? If so, I live up there in the apartments and you are absolutely friggin' insane for doing that road on a bike. There is absolutely NO shoulder and blind turns. I cannot believe my eyes when I see people riding a bike or walking up and down that.
Very good points on needing a helmet in Pittsburgh.
You seem like a good biker who follows the rules, but there are a lot of your fellow riders out there who drive me insane. Absolutely no attention to traffic laws (i.e. i've seem them zoom right through red lights), riding in blind spots, etc.
Anyway... that's neither here nor there.
