Who has or is planning to get an electric car / EV Talk

More than 10 miles is not practical for cycling. That’s why I said it would be ideal if people lived closer. You could likely cycle 3 miles without getting too sweaty unless it was 100°F out. Then just drive because it’s too hot 😂

Right now I live about 15 miles from my work so too far to cycle IMO. Even when I lived about 2 miles away I drove my car because there’s no cycling infrastructure. I tried cycling, but after getting hit twice with only very minor injuries I decided not to push my luck. We have a painted bicycle lane but it’s just a stripe so cars commonly drive in it. It’s illegal to ride on the sidewalk where I live. You can still do it without hassle from the police because they know how dangerous cycling is. Even on the sidewalk you have to be careful because drivers don’t pay attention when they’re turning into businesses.

I’ve got an electrically assisted bicycle It’s great. Best way of thinking about it is like always cycling with the wind in your back.
