Walkable city means taking a bike. Got it.

[–] Gabu@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Largely, yes. Bicycles are a better, healthier way to move distances longer than 100-ish meters, ideally are only powered by human effort and move at speeds low enough that accidents are absurdly unlikely.

Wouldn't that make it a bikeable city?

I live in Europe, not about to break out the bike to go less than a couple of km

[–] Gabu@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That too, but a walkable city by necessity also becomes a bikeable city.

I thought it was just funny that the term "walkable" for some people invokes the idea of using bikes
