They need a better route, not to be killed. Also, I don't know what its like for cyclists in Van, but if in Calgary I can make it from Marda Loop to McKenzie Lake in 30 mins then it can't be all that bad. I think most of the aversion is the inability for people to realize that there is an alternative to a car or public transit, but it involves planning, breathing heavy, getting your heart rate up for a period, and, god forbid, sweating a little.
One taste of satisfaction and adventure to be had even on the commute to work on a bicycle is addictive to the max.
