I'm not against bicycles and electric bikes. I'm against "not" electric motorcycles. If your e-bike goes beyond 20MPH under power and goes beyond twenty miles in range then the primary mode of locomotion isn't supposed to be the pedals. The pedals at that point are a backup, like a reverse moped. Ideally we'd return back to the 1890s-1910s with public transport consisting of fixed line trolleys or light rail covering distances larger than five or six blocks while walking or bicycling covers distances less than that. That's where EV technology would be ideal because you could run a combination of overhead, third rail, and battery power depending on available infrastructure and space, all using the same cars city or town wide.
