That's why I have a car too though, that guy's quote is word for word what I would say.
We had a street car in the early 20th century that brought people to the nordic/alpine ski areas but now there's nothing. Up here I enjoy going to do xc skiing in the winter, I wouldn't be able to without the car.
Plus if I want to go on a weekend away, I have the car.
The bike is my recreation and my day to day work/shopping is on foot. Car is a luxury to go long distances.
