So where I live it’s SUPER hilly, and I mean steep hills. You mix that with no bike lanes, and super heavy traffic. Like, my apartment parking lot dumps you straight out on to a 4 lane road right in the city.
So, all of that mixed with the fact that we aren’t trying to do this to lose weight. We don’t cycle cause it’s fun to us. It’s literally because I have the only drivers license, and the only car. But they need their own local transportation.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot, the weather! Down here starting in may the weather goes into death mode. The summers here stay in the 90’s, and very often break 100. With an average humidity of around 80%
So, we don’t cycle as a hobby. I mean riding 10 miles maybe nothing to you, but the hills alone. I’d rather take a severe beating than ride 10 miles. In the summer it gets deadly hot. They are riding this thing to work to be less than 2 feet from clients. So, don’t need to be sweaty. There are just sooooo many reasons that this thing really needs to get them there and really not be pedaled at all preferably.
Which that is one advantage of the cheap scooter. Scooters aren’t allowed on the road. So they can ride it on the sidewalk avoiding crazy drivers.
