All others prefer, like myself, good quality bike paths.


I saw one in London once.


Visit my area (Folsom, Rancho Cordova, Sacramento) and you'll see lots
of them.


Visit almost all U.S. cities and you'll find there's no way to build
them to serve more than a tiny fraction of destinations.

So if you're really going to ride a bike to get anywhere, you still need
to know how to ride on an ordinary street or road. That will always be
the case. And Forester was the first to make real headway in teaching
those necessary techniques.
