Thought it would be great for quick trips around the neighborhood.

But then I started paying attention to the traffic. There are just too many drivers who really dislike bikes of any kind. And the theft of ebikes (DU's spell checker doesn't think this is a word either) is pretty rampant. Finally, I just decided it would create more issues than it would resolve.
