@mrv@piaille.fr I don't think a MTB needs significantly more energy to drive on dirt than a normal bike on asphalt/concrete @lalonsander@chaos.social

@mrv@piaille.fr @lalonsander@chaos.social That’s a picture of an automobile road. Bicycles can ride just fine on dirt.

@mrv@piaille.fr @lalonsander@chaos.social 1) It looks like your image is showing the construction process for an automobile road, not a bicycle trail 2) When it comes to bike lanes, which I think is what you're talking about, we only need those because of cars having seized and earmarked that space 3) In many places, the natural terrain is fine for riding without being modified. And when modifications do become needed, a dedicated bike trail requires far less effort to construct than a road for vehicles.
