You are not wrong - this is where personal, private, transportation excels. And why Culver city desperately needs a quality network of safe, protected, bike infrastructure. Cars don't scale, but bikes do.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. If there was safe and protected infrastructure, I feel a lot more people, including myself, would bike, especially with all the new e-bikes available. I will give Culver City some credit because they do have some dedicated bike lanes but they're not really protected.

When I lived in Santa Monica it was supposedly building a great network of bike lanes. That was twelve years ago…

Well the bar is pretty damn low. There's nowhere I'd really feel safe letting an 8 year old bike to school.
