The Brampton electric folding bike. |
I've been writing a lot about electric cars and electric car charging infrastructure lately, but I'm still in agreement with Lloyd on this matter: Our society could definitely use a break from car addiction, regardless of the fuel used to power them.
Specifically, says Lloyd, we need an "all of the above approach", in which as much attention is given to walkability, bike infrastructure, cargo bikes and e-bikes as it is to Teslas and superchargers and autonomous vehicles.
Luckily, I believe some of that is happening already. True, we see many more blog posts about the demand for the Tesla Model 3, but sales of e-bikes have been exploding in recent years and now Brompton—the makers of one of the nicest folding bikes out there—are entering the fray too.
