I want to ride a bike really bad, but cars have killed more cyclists in my city year over year my entire life.

It's just simply terrifying out there when a douche in an Escalade is in a hurry.

Even without that, weather is a huge issue.

You could just get a small EV like a Citroën Ami but having more than two wheels on a vehicle does make you an eco-terrorist according to Lemmy.

We hardly have any small EVs in the US. I'm keen on the mini that's coming out next year, but 40k is a big ask for a short commute.

I guess it's busloads of tweakers for me for a while.
