Reply #32: It's possible...

It's possible to commute around here by bicycle. I haven't for a couple of months, but I used to commute by bike about 8 miles each way to work 3 times a week.

There are lots of bike lanes and bike "paths", but, like any car-heavy city, you have to watch for nutty drivers. Some people really don't know how to drive around bikes and some believe you aren't even allowed on the road, despite the fact that it's illegal to bike on the sidewalks..
