I don't know much about riding a bike in Houston, but a lot of general tips are useful for bike commuting in any urban setting. First off, take the side streets and residential streets as much as you can. It will slow you down a little bit but you'll have a better, safer ride most of the time. The other tip is to stay in the middle of the road, making yourself as visible as possible, even you have to be rude. Better to be in their face than under their bumper. Thanks, Stephanie!
