4chan gets it

Yeah, because biking 35km soon after waking up, then another 35km after work, is super easy for sedentary people /s

You won't be sedentary after a month of that though!
- If the transit doesn't kill me first. For my personal situation, half of that course would be in highways with cars going at 80+ km/h.
  Luckily, I can and do take a bus instead of driving there, saves me so much stress and headache, not to mention that I can use the ~1h downtime to watch or read something
  
  I live about 45min outside of a major city. I'm also looking for my first career type job. We do have a train that goes into the city which my mother has taken for many years. The only way I'd be ok commuting in would be if I can take the train or a bus. Thinking of spending an extra 10hrs+ driving each week sounds so terrible. That's 25% more hours each week that I don't get paid and instead have to pay money. The only other way would be a hybrid schedule with only 2 days commuting per week.
  I actually get kind of excited to commute by train, I used to not have a car up in the twin cities and I read so much more having to take public transit. I would totally get a steam deck or ROG ally and finally get to play Hades and Hollow Knight.
  There are downsides though. Like if you want to go by the store or a friend's on the way home you probably can't. Also if you just miss your train, you might be waiting a long while. Lastly our train here is fairly dangerous and the nearest stop is in one of the most dangerous cities in the US.
  I wish biking was easier but where I live there is no way I could get into the city. Plus I used to bike to my first job, about 5 miles, and it sucks to get there and be sweaty. Guess with e bikes now that isn't as big of a deal.
  
  I have a game that I always play on the road. Either I play it, or I sleep, if the day or the night before were rough. The fact that I can do either and chill until I get to work or home is fantastic. Where I live, the drive culture's pretty bad and you always have to be hyper focused during the entire drive.
  Also, a part of my salary is calculated based on how far I am and how long it takes to commute. If I drive, the cost of fuel easily exceeds that part of the salary.
- Dies in a week from sweating
That's pretty easy to do on an ebike!

in most parts of us that is not an option any sane person would choose

I did that until I got hit. I'm not willing to die to get to work.

When I had an actual separated bike path, though, it was wonderful.

I drove 550 miles to another state for work travel, bringing an entire car load of work related stuff too. Doing that on a bike would be pretty hard...

80% of the US lives in metropolitan and micropolitan areas. Most people work in the same metro or micropolitan area that they live in.
Biking will never work for every trip for everyone. Public transit will never work for every trip. But it's something that can work for many more trips, given better zoning & infrastructure. If you're in a town, city or suburb, you shouldn't need a car to buy milk or have a pint with friends.
Getting most people out of cars is good for everyone. Cars lanes have much, much lower throughput than bus lanes or bike lanes do. Think about how much nicer driving is if you're not stuck in traffic.

Yes, german. English pages are mostly making fun of the theme, displaying F1 cars and so on. Different mindset.
