Biking through bad neighborhoods is not as bad you think. Really. I bike through W. Baltimore (where “The Wire” allegedly took place) on my commute to the work and rarely get harassed. Most people don't think twice about cyclists. On the way in to work most are heading to jobs or to get kids to school. On the way home, traffic is usually lighter because I leave work after the kids get out and before the night rush hour. I occasionally get something yelled at me, but I have had that happened to me in the nicer parts of bmore too. I really don't feel any less safe during that part of my commute.
