Now just for grins, compare the Long Beach bike map to that of Davis CA.

Or compare it to Oulu Finland, where you are rarely more than a block away from suitable bike facilities.

And of course there is Portland Or... Where you might have to go a few blocks to get to a bike boulevard...

Remember the Long Beach map is about what is planned... the others are about what they have now. Long Beach has a long way to go to be "The most bike friendly city in America."
