Bikes have their time and place, but they're not the perfect cure all.

I've been injured and unable to use a bike. I can't fathom being elderly or pregnant and having to bike in the rain to pick up groceries.

Driving and cars are amazing sometimes too. Where I live I can drive to the mountains and the ocean. I can go hiking, camping, and bring my dogs with me. I can go off-road and set up my telescope in the rural night sky. I can haul equipment and furniture myself. I love the distance I can cover. It makes the world accessible.
