The sidewalks are really dangerous where I am, where they are super uneven, have “artistic” curves, and trees that are overhanging really low so like will hit my body.
I go max 15 MPH on my escooter and if I hear a ding ding I jump onto the sidewalk and go a bit slower until you guys pass, since I’m slower and can dismount easier it only makes sense for me to make room. I figure as long as I make room it “shouldn’t” be a problem.
But just wondering if there are any bike riders that are just like shaking their fist at escooter riders.
EDIT: USA!
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.
The average amateur cyclist travels about 17-18 mph while on flat ground.
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…
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.
The average is still faster than the speed being discussed, so I don’t think their point is entirely wrong
