This doesn't have much to do with this development per se but I don't understand the implicit assumption here that if you have a bike you must use it every single day of the year regardless of weather, or else it's pointless.
Why can't a person own a bike and then take the bus or drive a car when the weather is bad? Isn't this still desirable if it reduces environmental impact and traffic and if the person prefers it, even it's only used some of the time instead of for every single trip?
You often hear of "motorists" or "cyclists" as if they are different species of human. But cars and bikes are different modes of transportation, and you are allowed to use more than one!
