I don't think you'll meet a transit/urbanism advocate who will tell you to ride transit that doesn't exist where you are or that is wildly impractical for you. I certainly won't. For me, it's more about doing what makes the most sense for you, while also pushing to change the infrastructure where you are to make transit and urbanism better and more feasible for more people.
I have written my council pushing for changes to existing biking laws to make it safer in my city. So you're rightz we have to push for what we need. Nothing changes if we don't voice our concerns.
Agreed. Seems we're largely on the same page, then.
It's often the way of things, which a comment or two isn't able to portray. Have a great day :)
