I live in a climate where summers are very hot and winters are really cold. There are also rainy days. That doesn't live a lot of time when I can use a bike, maybe half an year.
Also, the City I live in has lots of traffic and I don't feel safe riding a bike. Also, riding a bike isn't comfortable on long distances, you can't go to shopping, you can't get your family on a bike and get somewhere.
I don't see bikes replacing cars, mainly augmenting them. If I'd have to chose, I would feel safer on a motorbike or scooter than on a bike.
