Yeah I hate riding a bike but oh how I love the electric bike. I got the new Velotric Discover cruiser, it’s heavy but so much of a joy to ride my whole family takes turns riding it around the neighborhood.

My main problem is how steal-able bikes are here. I take it to work and park it inside (we are a sports company, it’s not unusual) and home and park it inside, to yoga and pop the battery out, lock the bike where it’s not visible from the main road and keep the battery inside with me, but can’t just go get a diet coke or groceries or whatever and not expect it to be gone when I come out of the shop. I do have theft insurance, but there’s no good place to lock the bike most places.

Secondary problem is dangerous roads but work/yoga I can get to on 35mph speed limit roads, and there are two groceries within same circle. Bikes just get stolen so much.
