I'm optimistic about this oil crisis finally breaking carbrain. My city's cycling infrastructure only began in response to the crises of the 1970s, and now it's a respectable network that completely changed the psychogeography and socioecology of the city's development even during the boom years for cheap oil. With a large enough shock, an ebike that costs 1/10th the price of a car and the much cheaper/easier to maintain cycling infrastructure become as common sense as the reasons I don't/can't commute by horse. We're getting this oil crisis right as ebikes are about to get their Model T moment with the development of solid state batteries.
