My FIL randomly got me an e-bike that I can't use for that exact reason. There's no way for me to get anywhere from my house without having to cross an extremely busy highway. I could drive the bike to places, but that defeats the purpose.
Wait... What? Riding the bike defeats the purpose of having the bike? I'm confused.
By drive the bike I mean putting it in my truck and bringing it somewhere safe to ride.
Ahhh. Gotchya.
