I was just thinking the opposite thought last night. I live in a residential neighborhood about 3 miles from downtown Seattle. Last night I was coming back home from a spin class in south Lake Union about 5:30 and I was struck by how many bikes were on the road. I was one of many (you'd get to 100 pretty quickly if you started counting) and the interaction between cars and bikes coming through Fremont has become smooth and relatively devoid of confrontation. It seems to me like vast majority of people in this part of town have figured it out and everybody just moves along doing what they are supposed to. I know some people still have run-ins with traffic but I bike almost everyday and I can't remember the last time I had somebody honk at me or get aggressive. As you head out to the burbs it does start to change a bit but it's still pretty difficult to be alone in this city without putting in some serious miles or by putting the rack on the car.
