Hoooooooo, it was a joke! (and I noted that). Honestly, this does not require a comment like that.
This is from someone who commutes to the office by bike daily (30 km) in a country where biking=good! :)
Actually the joke was Mercedes vs "trottinette" but I did not have a good translation of this French work handy (a kind of scooter you stand on and you traditionally move by pushing your foot on the ground - now they are electric). Which of course does not change anything because the scooter is good and comparing this in car-centric countries etc.
- k99x55 2y agook I was a bit harsh, I have been watching too much Not Just Bikes/Urban channels and I see too many cars everywhere lol 30k is a good daily ride. Keep it up!
- dvqc 2y agoA trottinette is actually called a scooter in english. I believe a "motor scooter" is what we in France call a scooter.
- BrandoElFollito 2y agoThanks, good to know. We have plenty of these false friends.
- gradschoolfail 2y agoThe version i’ve heard is “better to cry in a Bimmer than laugh on a bike” (sounds English-optimized, but thats just luck —- BMW also make the bikes)
