That's hard for my tired eyes to read. So I took the url for the image, noted that it had a "_sm" on the end of it, and figured I would try w/o it. It's a bit larger- http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/htm/2009/images/fig9b_02.gif
And also find the .gif attached (hopefully).

Bicycle Board Members,
As I promised at last night’s meeting, I looked up the signs: R5-1b and R9-3c that Jim Hudson recommended for addition to the backs of the R3-17 BIKE LANE signs for the Mon Blvd bike lane. I couldn’t figure out how to cut them from the MUTCD and paste them here so I can only send you the
link
to them.
"Bicycle Specific Wrong Way" signs (R5-1b) and "Ride With Traffic"
(R9-3c)
placard: http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/htm/2009/part9/part9b.htm#figure9B02
If you have trouble seeing them at the link, I’ll try to describe them here. The R5-1b is a white on red rectangular sign with a bicycle symbol
at
the top and the words, WRONG WAY below the bicycle symbol. The R9-3c placard is a black on white square sign with the words RIDE WITH TRAFFIC.
Hudson also cites the R3-17 BIKE LANE sign that was included in our recommendation. That sign is also visible at the above link. It is a rectangular black and white sign. The top 2/3 has black background with
a
bicycle symbol in white. The bottom 1/3 of the sign has while background with black letters, BIKE LANE.
He also recommends installing "No Parking At Any Time" signs (R7-201) on both sides of the road. In the 2009, MUTCD, I could not find a R7-201 sign. The R7-1 is the standard red on white NO PARKING ANY TIME sign. There is a whole series of no parking signs at http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/htm/2009/part2/part2b.htm. There are R7-201P
and
R7-201aP that designate tow away zones. In the 2003 MUTCD, the R7-201
says
TOW-AWAY ZONE. The 2003 MUTCD R7 and R8 signs can be viewed at http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/htm/2003r1r2/part2/part2b3.htm#figure2B16 .
