Overall I think the routes look mostly logical and make sense, but the biggest barrier for cyclists is the river. When it goes up, and the low water crossings are flooded, there are not many options for getting across. Think southwest of downtown between Woodshed and Bryant Irvin. Also downstream from Samuels, there are no options other than 4th St, which would work great if they would get rid of the chains that block riders from re-accessing the trails after crossing. I plan to take some photos of these barriers and forward them onto the City in hopes that this low hanging fruit can be picked!

The mayor herself is already aware of the lack of connectivity at LaGrave field after her ride there a couple of weeks ago.

I think telling the mayor is a good contact, but Julia McCleeary is the best contact; bicycle infrastructure is her job, and she's the official city contact (scroll down the page for a link to her email). Her budget is limited, but in the case of providing a bike pass-through past an automobile gate on an existing trail, I think the cost would be relatively low (mostly labor and maybe a few posts). I think that's the kind of stuff she might be able to do something about on a short timescale.

He seemed a bit out of touch with where I feel that Fort Worth is going.

The city removed the separated bike lane on 3rd Street between Grove Street and Terry Street and turned it into a sharrow lane. Not sure why.
