I live in Grapevine, TX which is at the north end of the runway of DFW Airport. I like to use my bike for utilitarian purposes, like going to work, supermarket, pet store, etc. I use my bike instead of my car any time I can, which means I'm on my bike literally nearly every day but only get in the car once or twice a week on average.
The roads around here are suburban, though I can cycle to the train or bus stations inside the airport and get to downtown Dallas or Fort Worth if I have the time to commit to the trip.
The biggest hurdle I face around here is the hostile drivers. Most of the roads I cycle on have a 35-45 mph speed limit but the cars actually go much faster. Although I have two road bikes, the bike I ride most often and consequently feel most comfortable is my commuter. Hubby leans more toward the "roadie" POV though.
