A cycle is the ultimate means of transport for short distances

A fact that nowadays all of the most popular energy sources are finite and a significant amount of them is harmful to the environment, makes me think about what means of transport is an ultimate one - the one that works regardless of any external resources, is the most simple and robust.
In my opinion a vehicle that one can be cosidered so is a cycle, which for working requires only one source of energy - our muscles and enables to move relatively long distances, in relatively comfortable way, in relatively short time, for free.
It is a vehicle that enable us to comfortably move around cities and get to suburbs relatively fast, what in case of cars is less smooth, more expensive and harmful to the environment.

@andrewcanday, agree. Bikes are totally weather-dependent. And that is one of their problems as means of transport.
I bike to work - it takes me 25 minutes. I would consider switching to a car if it would take me twice as long.
How about you?
Cycling to work is a great way to start the day. You get the nice fresh air before going indoors to work. Cycling home after a day of being in meeting and staying indoors.
