simgurufrost has confirmed we'd be able to use them wherever.
and bikes aren't limited to them roads like y'all what am talking about. imagine strolling through the beaches of brindleton bay and pinnacles of del sol valley. that'd be nice.
still no news for them kids tho.

Always happy for confirmation though
Imagine riding them over that high bridge in Selvadarado.
This is a relief.
Probably because kids can't ride them. Maybe they'll make that possible in a free update somewhere along the line, though...
Wouldn't hold my breath... Not only kids would need another animation set, but a different object as well (kids bike). Sadly.

Nah, the question specifically mentioned Willow Creek, making it clear that the person asking the question meant anywhere as in all worlds. If the answer was no, then they'd ignore that particular phrasing of the question.
And bike riding would work just like jogging, I'd imagine. There isn't much they'd need to do to make that work.
I don't know, "wherever" in response to the question that was asked (uni world only or also WC or others) isn't ambiguous to me at all. Wherever means both uni world and other worlds. If it was in response to "only campus or other places too", I'd understand that it might mean "Britechester only" but not here.
They very likely didn't need to alter worlds: Sims will be able to bike on existing jogging and walking routes. Water in non-Sulani worlds wasn't initially designed for Sims to go into it so it would've needed a redesign: adding routes for Sims to move on, making sure they *swim* there and don't end up looking like they're walking in water.
Cars would also require a redesign of the existing roads (make sure FX cars don't move through the interactive ones, that trams don't crash into cars, that Sims don't start walking in the middle of the road...).
In TS3 you could only ride bikes on the actual roads. It’s going to be a massive improvement if you can ride them to literally anywhere.
I pretty much seen how sims can jog. So basically, if in willow creek, your Sim would take a one round jog on a sidewalk ? That would be very anticlimactic.
Race Against the Clock: Can your elder sim turn back the clock before their time runs out?
Yes it is anticlimactic. Which is why I don't get the excitement. Bikes to me always looked like it worked exactly like jogging just with different animations. Since there are more efficient way to travel in game, I think it is a novelty that will lose it charm in my gameplay very quickly. I am glad others are enjoying the concept, though. Not everything needs to appeal to me.
The easiest option probably was "if sims can walk by, there can be bikes".
There are walk-by paths in the worlds already. Sims jogging don't take random routes.
I wonder if now we'll see Nancy Landgraab doing ride bys instead of walking by?
Knowing how The sims 4 operates.. I am sure kids cant use them. 'Too much' animation programming for EA to invest in.
Didn't they give off the impression at some point that they were changing the water in other worlds to be swimmable with IL? That never happened, so I wouldn't bank on them adding anything later for UD features.
