Seriously, exercises like these assume that a bicycle is a suitable substitute for an automobile, only far cheaper and without the costs. A foolish and bogus exercise for most people with family obligations and/or desire not to spend all their free time in a dense urban area tethered to the demands of public transport and or weather conditions.
