Thought about comparing different modes of transport, but realized it would be way too subjective. For example, if 5 km are in biking range is dependent on biking infrastructure, available public transport, how in shape you are…
But then I realized I can just simplify all these things away to get the optimal transportation flowchart. Simple is always better, right?
I live in suburbia and walk to work because it’s in my basement and shipping a brain through meat space to push buttons somewhere else is dumb.
Hmm. Is a cargo-bike better than a bike in the Netherlands?
Well, I mix in some skateboard+public transport and bike+public transport but you are pretty much spot on.
Over 50km I try to carpool or do public transport . (Argentina, 70km away friend visit is not uncommon)
I’m too terrified of dying to an irresponsible driver, so as much as I would like to bike everywhere, I’ll keep taking the metro for now. They’re adding more and more actually decent bike lanes so hopefully one day…
I have to take car to train. A bus comes all 2-4 hours and bike takes 40-50 min to the trains ;-;
But hopefully soon i can move!
