I always thought Lakewood had the coolest layout of any city. Compact housing. Major east-west roads with bus service and lots of cool, small shops. I'd be nervous on a bike though

I ride on the sidewalk. People online yell at me saying "YOU CAN'T DO THAT!!!" but in person, I'm NOT riding in what is essentially a 1 lane road per direction, which buses aggressively cut people off, and car drivers are distracted by cell phones.

Especially since I don't ride fast. I go probably 2mph. Barely faster than a jogging person.
