According to the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, 60% of trips are less than six miles, and three-quarters of all trips are less than 10 miles. We have noted before that this is the fastest ride to zero-carbon; almost anyone can ride an e-bike for six miles under almost any conditions. If there were safe places to ride and secure places to park, then millions of car trips could be avoided, and millions of cars taken off the road. If only e-bikes weren’t totally ignored.
Why on earth is the commenting box all the way to the bottom?
Anyway…
eBikes. <— Easier to steal than a eKickScooter or eScooter for short. Why? I can fold mine and hide it inside the gym, I cannot go inside the gym with an eBike.
I live in a city with very high bike robbery figures. Purchasing an eBike would be an excellent way to invest in someone else’s comfort. I’ll be owning it for 5-full minutes probably before it gets stolen and I never see it again.
