I have no real fear of the electric bit as the problem of distance will be sorted before they become too popular. It's the self-driving bit that scares me. I fear I'll live long enough to see it!In a lot of cases I would rather have an intelligent car driving instead of some of the brainless I see behind the wheel! Just yesterday I was cut off, at a busy intersection, by a young women staring at her cell phone and not seeing what was going on around her. As far as the electric bike, great write up Ferret! I assume we will reach the point where a hybrid bike will be feasible providing range while eliminating the long charge cycles. I'm still a young 66 and plan to be around to see it! I gots to test drive one of those electrics. There is one in town and it is supper quite! I think I'd put playing cards in the spokes just so people will know I'm coming!
