    I got a bike for <10km flat trips (30 min).

    An ebike for longer (10-20km), or hilly, or carrying stuffs trips, or very hot days.

    A trailer for groceries.

    And I don’t like to exercise! But I clearly saw an improvement on my physical and mental health.

    My wife as her car for longer trips or when we have to move all family.

    Thing is we have a fairly good bike infrastructure (bike lanes everywhere and some bike roads), but not good enough for kids or people who are afraid to share road with cars.

    We need more bike-friendly roads (low speed on separated lanes), and make people conscious that car is not mandatory most of time.

    Cool. Meanwhile cruise ships and shipping boats continue to contribute to the vast majority of emissions.

    As long as they continue to exists it will make zero difference what kind of car or bike you drive.
