Comment on Bike Riders of lemmy, you okay with me riding my eScooter in the bike lane?

In my eyes having someone on an escooter in front of me is no different to having a slower cyclist in front. So it wouldn’t bother me.

Slower? The guy said he does 15mph, that’s pretty standard bicycle speed for me, I could go faster if I’m trying to really race somewhere but then my leggies get tireds >.<
Electric motor scooters are pretty neat, I wish I had one, but they’re sooo expensive :-(
One day, after the apocalypse makes money obsolete, I’ll take one from an abandoned shop while I’m scavenging for food :-D

25 km/h (15miles/h) is slow. A racing bicycle will without sweet do 40-50 km/h.

Even your own source disagrees with you 😂
I think you’re looking at the numbers for the top 0.1% of cyclists in the world when they’re competing…

The average is still faster than the speed being discussed, so I don’t think their point is entirely wrong

What is a amateur?, with my crappy mountain bike I can do 30-35km/h on flat ground, for 30min comfortable, And still get passed by people on race bikes.

Have you figured out how you will keep charging it after the apocalypse?
