You don't get any exercise with an e-scooter, and personally I go a fair bit faster than most of them on my bike. Cycling to the work saves me time on my commute and the need not to go to a gym. My commuting bike (a very basic mountain bike, cost < 300 euros) has paid for itself multiple times over in saved money on public transport. Its an efficient lifesytle choice for me. I can't understand why so few people cycle.

> I can't understand why so few people cycle. Rain, snow, hills, sweat, cargo, parking, theft, [getting hit by] cars, maintenance. I have two bicycles, and I'm considering a bikeshare subscription, because hauling them up and down three floors and maneuvering them around a tiny apartment is annoying. Unrelated, but I was hit by a car on bike to work day.
