Visited L.A. recently and was not impressed. One of the thoughts I had there was, "I would hate to bike here." I commute via bike in Montana despite the lack of infrastructure, nice to see some are still Biking in LA. Hopefully they can improve. Very entertaining video as well!

I ride my bike in LA every day, and almost exclusively use it to get around. I've drove once in the last two months I think.

Some parts of LA is an okay city on biking if you know where you're going and the area.

More parts of LA is fine for experienced bikers.

But there are many many parts that are just outright terrifying.
