    they just tend to cycle for shorter trips

    that would require major changes in the US to even offer this in many (if not most) areas

    I literally cannot cycle anywhere and have to drive because:

    1. everything is so far away
    2. even if I wanted to cycle several miles there are no bike safe lanes, I’d be risking my life on a 45+mph road with not even a sidewalk. its just road or dirt/grass
