I’m about as far away from America as they come. I’m all for public transport, and use it regularly, and I also bike.
I use PT to get to and from work (can’t bike), and bike everywhere else. For any further trips I use the car to transport my partner and my dog. You can’t take dogs on public transport in my country

- purple-leafy 2y agoThat’s fair enough. I believe in being more independent from companies and doing your own thing. If you’re fortunate to be in a progressive city with good walkable areas, cycling areas, and public transport options then definitely lean into it
