Who wants to ride a bike, or even an eBike, in the rain? Never mind if you live in a winter state. I mean, if you can ride a bike to work then I say more power to you, but I think most people would want a car as a backup. And what if your wife wants you to run errands on the way home from work - where are you going to stash those grocery bags?

" That's an advantage, not a disadvantage. I have one guy that rides his human power bicycle to work everyday rain or shine. I have another coworker who lives farther away and is a true biker. He rides his Harley every day rain or shine. I Shift, MidCow Replies to this message: terry92270 (Sep 08, 2006 9:51 am)

One day he died from a burst blood vessel in his brain.....he drove a moped to work. I still have it two years later. No one came for it.
