it's a pretty inefficient form of transportation when compared to biking, unless you're taking it long distances and don't have the energy to bike that far, such as the end of a busy day at work. after constant "instant gratification" from being able to get on my bike and go from point A to point B immediately, i find it annoying to have to wait at a bus stop, get on the bus, sit down and wait for the bus to get me where i need to go as it stops at every single stop on its course. black people on the bus is fine by me, if anything it makes the ride a little more entertaining.
