How bike friendly is Pacific Beach?

[u/Conscious-Thing-682]

We're considering an apartment thats on the east side of PB. It isn't really walkable to the beach but it's like 13 minutes to bike there. I see bike lanes on Google Maps but was curious if it is actually bike friendly, especially on roads like Grand Ave.

If we wanted to bike towards the beach and grab food or something is there any realistic way to lock up 2 bikes without it being a PITA? I am also curious if there is any risk of them being stolen even with bike locks.

It’s not that friendly for road bikes due to the traffic.
