That isn't true.

Suburbs frequently have wide roads that make bike riding quite easy. They are also usually flat.

I don't know what you are doing to annoy car drivers, but I've biked a lot and have never been yelled at. (Or heard others yelling.)

I suspect this depends on where you're talking about. The actual residential streets are probably fine, it'll be the 'major' roads once you move from there where there's heavy traffic/people in a hurry where you might have more problems.

One of my friends has been shouted at several times cycling down a mile-road (i.e. 12-mile), that he should get out of the road.
