Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Cycling in Los Angeles accounts for less than one percent of all work commutes. Because of the mild climate, there is little need to carry the variety of clothing that cyclists require in other less temperate climates. One of the world's earliest examples of a segregated cycle facility was the nine-mile dedicated Cycle-Way built in 1897 to connect Pasadena to Los Angeles. Its right-of-way followed the stream bed of the Arroyo Seco and required 1,250,000 board feet (2,950 m3) of pine to construct. The roundtrip toll was 15¢ US and it was lit with electric lights along its entire length. The route did not succeed, and the right-of-way later became the route for the Arroyo Seco Parkway, an automobile freeway opened in 1940.
