Well, I was WAY off. I only counted 3 cars that passed me on my 5 mile ride home.
Kinda hard to believe considering that I commute through very dense, urban, and congested city neighborhoods, but that is the beauty of the chicago residential side street.
The main street two blocks over is a veritable grid-locked zoo of angry rush hour insanity, but by going a tiny bit out of my way, the side streets feel like quiet shady small-town roads. I love it.
