I keep thinking about getting something like this but realistically ….
- where could you park it? It’s already a common recommendation to buy a trash bike for those times you need to park it somewhere for any extended period. Now you want an even more expensive bike to get vandalized or stolen?
- dangerous streets is a bigger reason to not drive than my bad knees, and this has been significantly worse since everyone forgot how to drive over pandemic. Now being a pedestrian feels dangerous. On the sidewalk. (One intersection near me frequently has winter tire tracks over the sidewalk from idiots cutting the corner really badly). At every intersection (cars no longer stop before right on red, nor for pedestrian crossing signal). Even in ine way roads (twice this winter we had to pause crossing the street for a car going the wrong way and not stopping)
