No one is trying to bike across the United States. Heck, hardly anyone crosses the United States period. The core issue usually relates just to city clusters in one area, and mostly relates to a single individual city with its suburbs, and how that city has used the space it has.

You think I give enough of a flying fuck to waste my time??? LOL you can’t be for real.
