To be fair, for the most part I’m all about the most efficient/convenient method of transportation. Often walking is easiest. Sometimes it’s the bus, occasionally it’s the Metro, regrettably it’s sometimes the car. But the more I bike, the more often it looks like biking is the most efficient/convenient. CaBi was definitely my gateway drug, though. That and having a boss with 10 bikes in his basement who rides one of them to work every day.
I’m with you on that, jrenaut. In the U.S., most adults drive almost everywhere they go, but not because everyone actually loves cars or driving. They drive because they think that’s their best option to get where they need or want to go. In countries with much higher percentages of bike trips, it’s not because everyone loves bikes or cycling. It’s because more people see cycling as the best option for more trips.
