As a bicycle person, I'd love to rent the race track on off days or maintenance days.
On the other hand, how am I going to reach the race track if there is no high speed road to there?
Public transport? You mean those closed cabins where people go to spread their flu? No thank you.
Well, road maintenance would become significantly cheaper if most of the traffic were bicycles instead of cars though, so that'd be a win. And 6 lane highways could be easily reduced to 4 lane ones, to have space for emergency vehicles and the occasional hauler, with the remaining lane kept for public transport and footpath construction.
