I've been riding a road bike for 8 years in LA (4 miles, Santa Monica -> Venice) and it's been great. Yesterday I tried out an electric road bike for the first time to test out a longer commute (14 miles, Redondo Beach -> Venice) and it was great @ 45 minutes mostly on the beach. Not even tired! Compare that to my test car commute on the 405 from Redondo Beach -> Venice last Monday. Same 45 minutes but much more stress due to merging, bad drivers, people trying to make left turns last minute, etc.
