Do you know how big the city is? The city is not really setup too well for cross-city bike trips on the daily.
Then transit rarely gets you right to where you need to go so riding to/from the bus/train saves quite a bit of time.
For example I work/live downtown but had to meet some friends for drinks up in Crowfoot on a Friday night (one of the snowiest too). No way I could ride my bike there after work, get there in time, have drinks, and then ride home by a decent hour.
Instead I rode my bike to the train, took that and from there rode to the pub.
Took the last train home at midnight and was home in bed at a good hour.
