Comment on Anon rides a bike

  It’s really just situational mode of transport. If everyone ride a bike for trip shorter than 10km, if there’s great public transport and bicycle infrastructure to support the biking system, and if places are build in way that’s easier to have public transport to serve, then car will have the kind of freedom it promise.

  Still, motorcycle does solve the issue, it’s a middle ground for car and bicycle, it can go long range with less emission, it can free up a lot of space that car will take, and it also help you explore places. In Malaysia, there’s almost an equal amount of car and motorcycle on the road. Sure, it does have problem with people riding like a racer and weave around due to not having enough enforcement, but I’d imagine the traffic get worst without it. And it’s not like car didn’t do that as well.

    I’m in the market for an electric motocycle that can travel highway speeds and gave a span of at least 200 km for commuting.

    Needs to be privacy friendly though. So no apps or accounts. Just a key and a simple dashboard.

      Unfortunately i still haven’t heard of any motorcycle that can travel at such range. You have better option for ICE one though.

        I believe zero motocycles offers some options, but they require you to use a cellphone as dashboard if I recall correctly

  What if you were to go half and half with a motorcycle?

    I’d go full on a motocycle if I found a good electrical one, got the loan for it, get a drivers license for it.

  you’re right, in that context a car provides a different kind of freedom. it shouldn’t be like that though.
