  • I briefly considered an E-bike to get to work. The tech is now feasible for the range I’d need (15-20 miles one way). I would be fine leaving sooner for the longer time travel. But then I starting mapping out what bike trails and non-highways there are to connect the dots. What I could piece together not only would take much longer with more deviations, it still shared some of the higher speed urban streets that do not have very good lanes for bikes. That was discouraging.

    You know how some places have considered using part of an existing highway to create a rail system? What would be cool is if the same idea could be used for a slow traffic lane, protected from the main traffic.
