Tired of hearing that e-bikes are just for lazy people? German doctors beg to differ—turns out, riding an e-bike is nearly as beneficial for your health…
That’s a stupid headline indeed but I can conclusively say that for me, the e-bike quickly became my preferred vehicle, over the car. Basket big enough to hold groceries, not so much effort that I’m unwilling to go a few miles on it (before it was walk or drive, I’m not carrying groceries more than a mile, I did walk to work but in summer would arrive sweaty, and it was annoying carrying purse and lunch and coffee).
So I walk less but drive much less, overall more exercise I think.
