    Can a bike carry my weekly shop?

      It can’t carry a fridge either, which is often the go-to for people wanting to make the point that because you can’t use it 100% of the time, you should never use it at all. Or something. I never really understood why this observation changes anything.

        The Hell it can’t!

        (Also, the “carry my weekly shop” bad argument has an entirely different rebuttal.)

        I’m certainly not saying that, but if you want to make stupid comparisons about bikes being able to go different directions why not throw in all the stupid comparisons. There’s plenty of occasions where a bike is fine, there’s also plenty of occasions where it’s a dumb choice.

          Let me explain. 7 different people can use 7 different bikes to go to 7 different places. The car is less efficient because it can only transport its occupants to one location. Yes, the car can carry 7 people, but how many times does that happen? Certainly less often than your “weekly shop” random observation which has nothing to do with anything.

          I live with a reasonably sized wife that doesn’t require me to pollute my way around to bring her her weekly dose of fat.

              It’s not funny mate. You know sitting in card all day makes for a weak pelvic floor. Don’t come whining when your wife will leave for a non premature cyclist with concrete butt

              It means polluters will always find excuses to pollute. “I live in the countryside” “I need to buy food” “taking the bus is slightly inconvenient I can’t have that” “I hate other people”

              Guess what nobody cares about your life story, idiot

                  Let me guess, you have an handicapped kid and you work the night shift, that’s why you personally need a car. Because everything revolves around motorists bellybuttons
