I agree 100%. Theres always going to be a decent risk with cycling, but that illusion is important. "Spandex" cyclists (you'd likely fall into this category) don't really care about bike lanes, you're probably skilled enough to ride in mixed traffic. However my goal is to get families with kids riding to the corner for ice cream, people riding to work, to the movies, etc.
