When I lived in Kelowna I found the way all of the roads were set up, that it was very bike friendly. I think the bike lanes made it fairly easy for bikes and cars to cohabitate on the roads. Nobody was in anybody's way. Seeing the risks that bicyclists have to take in Calgary on the roads here gives me butterflies. I have tried biking downtown here during busy times and it wasn't really a positive experience. Maybe other areas are less intimidating.
