Yeah that's exactly it, hey. Here's a trip I regularly take on weekends:

It's just as fast to cycle as it would be to take public transport. And I have done that once or twice—though the ride is super stressful because parts of it require riding on 70 km/h roads and other parts require crossing 60 km/h roads at unprotected un-prioritised crossings.

It's just so disappointing how poorly our Council and state Government prioritise better forms of transport.
