Interesting article, with data, about how much the Dutch actually ride
their bikes.


Who wants to take longer utility rides on bicycles that are designed not to
be worth the effort to get stolen?



I did the bulk of utility rides during my life on cheap department store
road bikes. And yes, even one of those was stolen from me. Then there is
the matter of vandalism. There are low-lifes who seem to get a kick out
of making someone unable to travel the 15mi home by slashing the tires.

As for the scooter and modeps I fully agree that they should be banned
from bike paths. So should fast or souped up E-bikes.
