Comment on If you see a bunch of otherwise normal people with the same odd behavior then you are probably seeing the effects of a marketing campign. The effects can last for years, even decades.

  Nothing is cooler than getting rid of cars in favor of more efficient transportation.

    Efficient in terms of miles per gallon or liters/100km, sure, but unfortunately they are also heavier polluters. I obviously don’t want to give mine up, but the pollution means I would switch to electric as soon as it meets my needs and is affordable.

    I like bikes in general, but motorbikes wouldn’t be half as popular if they weren’t marketed the way they are.

  I was going to disagree but not sure about cool. Bikes are fun to ride though. I miss mine.

  Looks like you posted this twice so I’m replying twice :)
