    Cycling is definitely more freedom than car. Don’t need a license, fuel, insurance, etc. And you’re not affected by traffic.

    Road trips are fun, yes, but have nothing ro do with city congestion.

      Again, city thinking. If you have everything closeby then a bike or walking is logical. I live rural, I get groceries weekly. Want to go somewhere? Car. Checking on family every week? Car. If I go to work, I need a car. See clients? Car.

      If I had just a bike for all of this I would be in trouble because there are not enough hours in a day to make it viable.

        What’s the problem with complaining about issues in the city? Most people live in cities. Do we need to add an asterisk to every post to let you know that it’s not about you?

        You can move to somewhere more convenient if you’re not happy. I don’t know what you’re doing in this group anyway.
