I basically used Mapquest and found routes kind of parallel to the arterial I drive to work. through trial and error, I found a couple of different options. both are low-traffic and have wide outer lanes and low speed limits. part of one has bike lanes.it's efficient, pleasant, and I don't have to fight traffic much!
