I absolutely agree. It's not. But my brain irrationally decided that having 2-3 tons of metal around me is safer than cycling on two aluminum tubes and round strips of rubber around 2-20 ton monstrosities that can and go 8-10 times faster than me. My brain isn't very good at this, on account of being human. So I won't cycle to work if I can help it, unless everyone else is too.
