I believe in doing THE BEST YOU CAN. Not a mile more, no less. If you you got pickup trucks to complement the ride, then it ain't much benefit. The name of the game is not only saving energy but doing something good for the world, which is to avoid pollution.

Me, for example, should be using a car to launch the bikes. But I refuse, even if it costs me my life. Around my community is NO MAN'S LAND for cyclists, and so I insist on them opening bike facilities for me.
You refuse to think about it. The problem is not gasoline it is us. Too
many people. If you get rid of internal combustion engines your carbon
footprint simply shifts or spread around to whatever energy is used.
Regressing back to the 18th century or whatever you have in mind well...
you like horse power for 300,000,000 people. The exhaust catalytic
converters for that one would be fascinating. How many shovels you need?
Where would raise enough feed? How would you like an economy, you are
part of regressing, to medieval England. And so on.
There are simply too many people here.
Reducing the number is the only real thing America can do for Americans.
Close the doors and send the Illegals home.
If American can fix our problems, that is our concern. Rest assured the
rest of the globe is looking out for theirs not ours. Washington
continues to address the global economy and global governance.
They need to focus on maintenance, of the Republic and our economy not
to the demands, of Foreign and Global merchants and bankers and other
Countries like China etc.
Focus on America and Americans and not phony socialist agendas seeking
to control and manipulate Americans.
Bicycling as a solution to whatever is not going to create an idealized
and prosperous Republic. It won't get rid of pollution. It will further
stratify America into the ruling class and the herd.

The herd already drives Toyotas and the top predators drive SUVs. I don't know if you want it more stratified than that.

Bicycling is a democratic vehicle. It is developed in countries where people have high equality, such as Holland, Denmark and Germany.

I like to see PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY because if you don't save the planet nobody else will.
