This isn't intended to refute people saying it isn't?
What do I do when there's no bus route anywhere near my work? I cycle when it's weather appropriate but I ain't cycling to work in 20°C heatwave.
You're quite picky. Appropriate for a 1st Worlder, I might say.

I would rather have a world full of velomobiles than buses.
