The bike maybe the vehicle of the future for many young downtown city residents who live close enough to use it.
Mass transit still owns the crown of vehicle of the present and I would suggest perhaps still vehicle of the future.
Bikes for me represent the vehicles of my past.
- Rebelgecko 7y agoFunnily enough I actually see it the other way around (maybe because of the peculiarities of where I live). Biking sucks for downtown urban areas due to crappy drivers, bike thieves, and more accessible public transportation. However, for those who aren't well served by public transportation it seems like a great way to solve the last like problem. On foot, a train station 2 miles from your house isn't practical. On a bike it is.
- einpoklum 7y agoYou should visit the Netherlands or Belgium. Or China. Or a bunch of other places. You'll find people young and old biking around - in the city and in country. Naturally, if you need to get go 10+ km it becomes less relevant, but around wherever it is you live - it's perfectly useful.
