Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good!

Cars suck. Huge cars suck more. But without the biking infrastructure and culture of, say, the Dutch, it’ll be hard to get people in small cities, suburban, and rural areas off cars.

I went from a bolt EV with a 108 mile commute across Oregon to a bike in the Netherlands. Didn’t touch a car for a year. I could get everywhere by bike, carried my Xmas tree home via bike, and even on rural rides the culture and rules mean cars wait and work around you. Its incredible.

You can not hope to replace cars until bikes are the cultural, social, and urban planning focus of private transportation.
