yes, why not? we do use our bike for a purpose (transport, commute, pubs, etc.), people nowadays use their cars for everything, 70% of their journey are always under 5 miles, which make it pretty redundant.
Bingo, my grandfather live in a small town of Ponthir in Wales, he still cycles (although his hamstring is starting to harden up) to town everyday.
if he need to go to different location, he'll just get a taxi, or the bus.
