I rode my bike twice then gave up. Walking, although not pleasurable (no ped right-of-way, must push buttons to activate crossing signals), was faster then taking the bus at rush hour. It was a shame, the City has good bones, a wonderful location and really nice people. It is ruined by car traffic. Melbourne, on the other hand, has it going on! We biked everywhere in that city.
