Aside: that carbon savings is bogus, too. Compared to driving a car? Compared to bicycling or walking?
Yeah, the 33% time savings wasn't convincing to me at all. I would normally bike or walk that particular route, so although I had fun, I don't see a compelling reason for me to use it for that purpose.
Also, for the carbon savings, my transportation options are biking, walking, and as of this spring my 2018 Nissan Leaf; so not valid at all for me. I'll still take the bus on occasion (sometimes I like to walk to downtown Kitchener to meet up with friends and then bus back if it's getting late).
