Yes, still amused. Automobiles indeed have higher max speed than cyclists do, and they also accelerate more quickly.

In a comparison between cars and cyclists, I’m a little amused that you’d call cars slow to accelerate. When driving, my main issue with cyclists wasn’t anything to do with traffic laws; it was just that, when stuck behind them, my trip was doomed to take a great deal longer. Granted, the only thing I believe ought to be done about it is to build more bike paths, but still; a cyclist calling automobiles slow to accelerate is worth a laugh!
