Any commute by bike is always successful since it includes a bike ride. I have biked to stores that were out of the items I wanted. I have bIked to stores that were unexpectedly closed. Ironically, even though it takes more effort than driving it is never as frustrating as driving somewhere unsuccessfully because... cycling!
