On a bicycle, I never have to get on an interstate highway -- which means that I don't have to deal with the insanity of massive vehicles moving at 80mph. On my bike, I still face auto traffic, but auto traffic that moves at considerably slower speeds. I'm like you, Roody. I really do feel safer on my bicycle.
