I’ve been considering an e-bike or similar for quick trips from my house to coffee shops, bars, the beach, etc. It seems like a great option to not worry about parking and avoid traffic. But I can’t figure out what I would do with such an expensive thing (compared to a regular bike) when I get there.

Do you lock them to bike rack, or whatever random thing you can find? What about scooters, can you even lock them? Is that secure enough?

I really enjoyed shared scooters since you don’t have to worry about that issue at all, until the city council in my city regulated them out of business.

    You might try locking to gas pipes behind businesses. Yes, it’s security through obscurity, but it could work. And it means attacking the lock – rather than the gas pipe – is the only reasonable attack, although it does risk sparks near explosive fuel.

      I appreciate the response even though it’s not quite what I expected, lol
