Response to Cycling is ten times more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities

We've been using our electric assist "mama-chari" a lot more recently. I've been taking it to a local coffee shop that I'd usually walk (15 minutes) or drive (5 minutes)to and it's been great. My wife has been taking it to her parent's house (5.5km away) where I'd either drive them round trip or we'd take the train. Travel time ends up being about the same regardless of the method of transport we take.

What I like the most about cycling is how you can travel quickly and you're not disconnected from your environment like you are with a car. It feels more human.
