No, thank you, although I often thought about it. I had to be at work at ten till seven in the morning and the streets were empty. Then when I left work every afternoon I remembered exactly why nobody rides. It would be a great city for cycling if they could make it work. It's nice and flat and never really hot.

I've ridden a bunch in Central America outside of the big cities and have had nothing but great experiences. Nicaragua is especially good for riding (a somewhat positive consequence of an otherwise horribly depressing poverty) This pic is a bad stretch of road on the island of Omotepe, but the roads tended to be good dirt or concrete without much traffic.
