Note: I biked over the Causeway today. Unless I get some hearing protection, I don't think I'll ever do it again. The bike path is fine. However, it is a lousy ride. It's very, very, very noisy. The air from the freeway cannot be healthy to breathe. And, although there is a pleasant view to the north, it's a rather ugly ride on the whole, mostly just a tunnel-type view of the bike path and of I-80. I cannot imagine this ride as part of a daily commute.
