If I scroll over to where I am, there aren't any bicycle paths at all that actually go anywhere. There are some short connectors. It's common here to make subdivisions dead-end so that the residential districts don't turn into thoroughfares and shortcuts, but this means going usually a half mile to several miles farther to get somewhere. They put in bicycle paths to cut between subdivisions. These are usually only 100 feet long strips of 2 foot wide asphalt and go through playgrounds. It's expected that bicycles will go on the roads, and honestly I don't have a problem with that. I get along pretty well with cars, even when there aren't bike lanes (there are very few here).
