Meh I say.
You can ignore them pretty good 'round these parts, 'specially 'cause in the neighborhoods you don't see 'em, much.

In LA you can tell how bad a neighborhood you're in by the number of palm trees there are. A few plam trees, you're ok. A palm tree every ten feet, you're going to get shot.

I just realized that there are some pretty interesting views on my normal ride. I'll have to take pictures tomorrow if my girlfriend will let me borrow her camera.

Two Chicago memories come to mind with this photo:
1) How cold it was getting blasted by a 6' wall of water further down the path.
2) How I thought I would slide into the lake when that turn was a sheet of ice.
Well done.

Wow why didn't I read through this thread earlier. I don't take too many photos, but my area is definitely covered. Maybe I should take a picture of the cermak+state PJ's I pass everyday, or of the loop at 5pm.
West Loop Panorama
See the bridge on the left? I take it every day on the way to school. It is a death trap where people honk at you for obstructing them from driving in the bike lane, but it is a "hill" so I love to ride it.
I tend to disagree, with the summer part. When the christmas lights are up on a clear winter night, you could crap your pants in awe at the wonderfulness. I will pay someone to give me a fisheye/perspective shot of that next christmas.
