well, at least that's what the sign says. and it's a great view at sunset.

you're gonna have to ride in traffic no matter what, but on the side streets there's usually less pressure (unless it's rush hour..then no place is safe.)

be aware of your surroundings and goings-on always. good intuition & anticipation skills will come in very handy here.
