    As soon as bicycles are mentioned, everyone suddenly has to transport their washing machine 200 miles in sub zero temperatures.

      I think it’s more that when someone is suggesting something as a perfect thing, people naturally try to challenge that by finding faults in it.

        It’s blindingly obvious cycling is not a panacea for all transport and no one is suggesting it is. Yet here they are, all pointing out what everyone knows in response to a statement that was never made.

          It’s like you don’t read your peers comments. Yes, people argue this ALL THE TIME.

          If I had a dime every time someone said oh just rent a truck when you need it making blind assumptions about my life and what I need, I could buy a bike with it.

            Yes, people argue all the time and say exactly the same stupid things all the time and it gets really tedious.

      Glad that my city has a cargo bike renting program for 10€/day or 25€/week up to 4 weeks (selection from 17: 15 electric, 2 acoustic)

        I would take the acoustic, then I wouldn’t have to supply my own cards to put in the spokes every time!

        Seriously though cargo bike rental sounds like a pipe dream, too bad they roads where I am wouldn’t be able to handle such a thing by design!

        Every time someone mentions acoustic bikes I habe to laugh and it will still be as hilarius the next time.

      Really hurts I guess 🤷‍♂️

      Turns out it’s not so perfect but bike nuts don’t fit everyone’s needs.
