When I used to be on twitter and in response to idiotic comments like that, I would post the video of the guy cycling with a fridge on his back, one of someone moving a piano, several tradesmen that quit their vans to use cargo bikes, the pedal cab company in London (proper cargo bikes not the shitty tourist things) and the mother of 6 from Portland that had a cargo bike to take them all to school.

It used to shut them up

You're a fucking idiot if you think roads were only built for the transportation of goods & services as they were superceded by canals then by railways.

It was a massive step backwards in inefficiency in an orchestrated move by vehicle manufacturers that freight was shifted back to roads.

And the guys (yes, more than one) carrying fridges on their shoulders while cycling, have more fucking balls than you'll ever dream of having.

It's going to take several generations to remove the shit stain of "vehicular cycling" that John Forester has left behind

Roads existed before cars & it was cycling organisations that campaigned to have them tarmacked & sealed for everyone's benefit

Pavements were not built for vehicles yet in the UK over 350 people are killed or seriously injured by vehicles mounting it.

The other side of this is US websites that display "not available in your region" instead of the content.

Lack of public bathrooms? All of Paris is a public bathroom!
