And what use are freeways to bicycles anyways? Proper bicycle planning puts destinations no more than 3 or 4 miles from likely origins, a lot of freeways go 2 or more miles between exits.
Agreed, in the real world it wouldn't work for very long, but dreams have a funny way of being rather impractical at times.
