i'm a pro facilities VC myself. I believe communities that vigorously support bicycling in the transportation networks facilitate more vehicular cycling on the majority of the roads in the community that don't have any bike specific accomodations.
vehicular cyclists follow the rules of the road and uses bike lanes when safe and acceptable for use. this is in accordance to VC rules and the rules of the road.
Exactly. The key words are "safe and acceptable." Not all communities are quite as diligent in their implementation of cycling facilities... and that in of itself is a big issue.
