[quote=Anonymous]OP, your first mistake is assuming DC is on par with Boston in terms of cycling safety. Especially with Cambridge. It’s just not on the same level. Second, you chose to live in NWDC. If cycling to work and for daily needs were very important to you, this might not have been the best choice. You didn’t say exactly where but I’m guessing around FH or Tenley based on your responses. These areas are heavily SFH homes for families with kids, and relative to Cambridge/Boston this demographic is a lot more reliant on cars. You just don’t have the same percentage of people who bike to work or in their daily life. The demand isn’t there. Go take a look at the CT Avenue bike lane thread somewhere on this forum and you’ll get a sense of how not bike friendly DC is relative to Boston. [/quote]
