I wonder how much of the popularity of bikes is connected with this horrible drought we've been going through in California. For my uses, my non-electric bike plus BART is usually sufficient, so I've been looking around for what would be nice for rain or for trips outside the city. And I've found a bunch of promises and no available products. Most famous may be the Lit Motors C-1, always 5 years away from availability. My brother just came back from Beijing, and he commented on how they have a lot more transportation options over there.
