I've been thinking about this a lot lately. Used to live in a very urban place where biking/walking was always super convenient, and now I've moved out to the suburbs. Walking the dog or recreationally is good because there are lots of like paths around, but all my destinations are too far to conveniently walk. Most are like 5-6 minutes by bike though, when they would be the same travel time by car, or longer cause on a bike I can cut through some pathways. Seems wild to me that I'm one of very few people using these paths as actual transportation instead of just recreationally. One downside for my biking around the suburbs, is that all the destinations are only set up for car access. For example to get to my grocery store that backs onto the residential area, I still have to go out on the main road and access that way like all the cars. Would be so nice if these plaza type destinations had a pathway connection to the residential area so I could skip this one unpleasant part of my ride.
