-20c, Winnipeg, wind chill of -30c, a foot of fresh snow and you wanna be on a bicycle? Being OUTSIDE in winter is what’s making us miserable, not my warm car.
Have you ridden Winnipeg transit? No one who can afford a car prefers sitting in a dirty bus one row away from a guy nodding off from his near overdose. There’s a reason people overwhelmingly prefer the comfort, privacy and safety of their own car.
We need to aggressively transition away from fossil fuel dependence. We need transit
What you’re saying confirms what I am saying. Our transit systems are shit. We need better transit, and we need more transit. And we need densification (as I also wrote), so that transit is efficient and reasonable. We need ways of organizing our cities that don’t make the private car to be the most obvious and comfortable option. Transit and active transportation should be the most obvious and comfortable options.
