One issue with bicycles is that you can't travel very far or fast or take very much cargo or any passengers.
I think the cabal would like you be riding them, they would feel safer with a populus riding bikes than one with trucks and SUVs.
Bicycles are like EVs in terms of range and flexibility reduction, only even more so.
While most of this is true, I do have one counter point: Bicycles won't burst into flames randomly.
Nor can they be remotely hacked by the CIA/FBI.
Also, I would point out that the Viet Cong were very proficient in transporting a wide variety of arms and goods using bicycles. Mostly as a different form of wheelbarrow, but still, not as useless as you'd think.
Nor will they cause about 40k fatalities per year https://www.nhtsa.gov/press-releases/early-estimate-2021-traffic-fatalities
These are slightly different arguments, but valid points.
I did see how they have these cool 'cargo bikes' in Amsterdam and other bike places
Yes, they are a good idea in bicycle friendly cities.
