In the US I definitely do, which in addition to the place I live just not being very bike-friendly, is a contributing reason why I regrettably don’t take my bike out all that much here.
When I used to live in Fuzhou, though, a bike was the easiest way to get around…as long as you never needed to leave the city. I kept it locked up when I went places, so I wasn’t too worried about it being stolen, but I’d probably need to get a more durable lock if I used a bike the same way in the US as I did there.
