I live in Austin and i walk/Uber everywhere and largely agree with the author, we need better public transit absolutely. I'm wary of this line of thinking however "Our population is largely young and vigorous. ", a significant portion of people who could use better non single passenger car options are certainly not so young and vigorous, and it's worth noting that even those that are now won't be forever ;)

I think bikes are great, more bike options for sure, 10000. However in my opinion they're not a great solution to the transportation problem for most people.
