My $.02 : You have to either be pretty aggressive or an absolute lunatic to ride a bike anywhere in Atlanta traffic. Atlanta commuters are way below average in driving skills. Check out the statistics on pedestrian & cyclist deaths here. OMG! I love the PATH system, Stone Mountain, & all the other cycling opportunities here but, I try to stay off the roads as much as possible. The minute they start putting bikes out near Atlanta area streets it's gonna git ugly!
