    Taking a vacation road trip from Florida to the Grand Canyon with three kids with only bikes also comes at quite the cost. Bikes are great, but in many practical scenarios they are slow. Not all of us live in Manhattan, or a dense city, or even a well connected and safe to traverse suburb.

    Bikes cost time.

      Sure there are situations where bikes aren’t suitable.

      Bikes cost time. You have to think of the time it has cost you to earn the money to buy, run, and maintain a car.

      It is much easier to take a bike with you on a train than it is a car.
