I've been a cyclist in DC (and Boston) for almost 20 years, and the changes over that time have been fairly astounding. Overall, DC is doing a pretty good job [0]. The gradual transition from a little stripe to demarcate the bike lane to protected cycle tracks that take up a full lane of traffic has made a huge difference.

To be sure, the progress made in recent years in progressive cities is heartening, and the more people we get into cycling via modest means, the easier it is politically to get more substantive changes, like protected intersections or complete networks of physically protected bike paths.
