I have been biking to everything I can for three years now. It has saved me a ton of gas money, helped me get to know the neighborhood, encouraged me to shop locally 95% of the time, and because I'm only buying a few things at the grocery store every couple days, I've been eating more fresh produce. The only issue I've had is that we don't have bike trails throughout the city, and many of the side walks are broken, or they just end abruptly, leaving me to swerve on to the rode, and coming over the getters is not easy on my bike. I also don't enjoy riding on the road in high traffic areas. If it were easier to bike I think more people would, especially if we planned some activities that would showcase how easy and fun it is. A Tour de Rogers perhaps?
