Well, you’re right, this is a bike meant for transportation, not sports. Still counts as a bike though, so original comment is right too. Everybody in the Netherlands and Belgium has one of these (and if you wanna do cyclocross or bmx or fast road cycling, you have a second, third, … bike)
I spy a disturbing lack of racks and baskets and places to attach packs to go grocery shopping on your hybrid though. ;) Many city people don’t own a car (or only use it for taking their sports bike out of the city), so I guess they use their gas money for that. I wouldn’t know, I’m a one (utility) bike only person as well.

Ah yeah Estonia is not rich enough for everyone to buy 5 bikes so we buy one that can do everything.

Ah but that’s what a backpack is for, to be used only when needed. Why would I want extra weight on my bicycle, it’ll slow me down! lol
Because I can’t fit a crate of beer in my backpack, ofcourse!
Fair enough, I have a car for that. Can’t drive back, but then again, cycling drunk is illegal too.
