Likewise, I always see traffic on the paths when I ride them, especially around downtown, but I don't see many people riding on the north end of town where I live since it's not very bike friendly. At the moment I have one coworker who rides 80% of the time, and I see maybe 3-4 other riders per week. Still haven't seen the one regular who I often shared part of my route with last year (a lady, always with one pannier) out yet, but twice this past winter I did witness another cyclist riding through a snowstorm, and I saw tire tracks in the snow in front of my workplace quite a few times, so I know there's a handful of diehards up in Briargate.
