I’m not going to commute 30 miles to work on a bike, and I’m not going to haul a pallet of drywall on a bicycle. Off-road bikes are great, and they’re good machines for exercise. Bicycles should not be allowed on public roads. They’re a hazard.

In europe a few countries have city centers where you aren’t allowed to drive your car and some countries have seperate paths where bikes can ride. Bikes are way better for the environment and trips around 5-15 km can easily be done with a bike without having to pay for gas or insurance etc. Bikes also help you do excercise without having to waste time because you are doing the excercise while travelling somewhere. Bikes and public transport are so much more efficient than cars
