Bikes won't carry everything but they go a long way in solving day to day commuting problems.

- sunstone 7y agoYes, particularly e-bikes. That's why the Netherlands now buys more e-bikes per year than they do traditional bikes despite that e-bikes cost about twice as much.
- derekp7 7y agoWe just need to get past the mindset that e-bikes are cheating. This is one of the big impediments for anyone that I've talked to about e-bikes, they say they would feel embarrassed riding them (since the main purpose of a bicycle that many people see is as a form of exercise, not transportation). The answer to that, of course, is e-bikes aren't cheating, but driving a car is.
