It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

This article merely states that some tradespeople can use bikes instead of cars/vans/trucks, a point which you repeatedly agree with. You then go on to argue that the article is wrong because not everybody can use a bike.

I'm not sure why you've decided to pick an argument here.

But I'm not. I'm simply stating it's not possible for most. Other people didn't like that fact, and they started arguing. Good on the German guy that can. Unfortunately, most tradies have to burn diesel though.
