I’m cycle pilled and fully electric. I’ve got wind in my hair and bugs in my teeth. I’ve got places to be and sweat stains in my pits. I’m moisturized, unbothered, in my (protected!) bike lane, and flourishing. I can’t fully ditch my car yet for intermittent long distance commute reasons, BUT, I think I will be able to when I switch projects next year. Capitalism is a fuck, death to AmeriKKKa, may crude oil go to $1000 a gallon!
VERY relatable. It’s part of what took me so long to take the plunge myself. I got one that is about $1700 after tax. That IS a lot of money! But I had saved up for about two years now and I got lucky enough not to have any emergency come and wipe out my savings this time around. I hope you’re able to get one that fits you soon!
