angry sentiment. the people having nothing better to do than shouting "biking! is the best thing in the world. everybody should do it" for one misses that not everybody wants to do it (and being pressured to do sth causes an understandable and hefty backlash) and that more important, it's ableist because it assumes everybody is physically healthy enough to even bike in any weather.
for example, my throat reliably hurts every time i bike in temperatures of below 5°C. that's not because i'm really disabled, but because cold, icy wind + sensitive throat = sore throat. that sucks.
and that's besides the point that my coworkers wouldn't really appreciate to smell my sweat for 6 hours (we have no shower in office). and i also don't want to be in sweat-sticky clothes all day long.
Your reply is ableist because it's hard for dyslexics to read.
If you can't ride a bicycle, then find some other synergistic way to save time.
