Sure. Everything is fine, and we can all take time from our actual life schedules to ride around town on bikes just as you say.
I’d like to see a statistical analysis of proven bike riding (outside of the City’s puffery about biking)that actually takes cars off of the city’s roads. The SCV contributes to a huge amount of the freeway traffic going south on the I5 and SR14.
Most of those people don’t have the opportunity to use non-motor vehicles because they work over the hill. Those that wish to take the train have to consider the difference in transit time – taking the train from the SCV adds an hour or more to their total travel time. For someone who works in Downtown LA, it’s closer to an hour above what the normal car travel time is.
That’s somewhere between a total of 1 1/2 to two hours of travel, each way. I don’t care how many bikes are being ridden for a few miles here in the SCV – it is not a useful answer to the problem of many local citizens who have to work where the jobs are.
Oh, it can be done – if you have flexible hours at work, and if you have an employer who allows you to miss work when the trains are not working, or if you are capable of a 40 mile bike ride on surface streets to get to your employment on the south side of the Santa Monica Mountains.
All of the hardcore bike riders I know ride in their off-time, except for those who get paid to ride as their primary job.
