Stand still in the Midwest during midday and tell me you don't sweat. Not everything that is limping is a comparison, as we Germans would say.

99% of the world is not a resident of the USA and has not be enslaved to such rediculous building infrastructure builds. And for most people 25kmh is fast enough, if the infrastructure is right (not to mention dangers). 25km is enough to get from one end to other in most million cities in the world after all.

@Weryl You talk like ebike and public transport are mutually exclusive options instead of synergistic methods O.o

@CostashMTB If a normal bike meets all your needs, you don't even think about buying an ebike, so I don't see the point of your post. Either a normal bike is all you need, or an ebike is better than every alternative.

We call the tools to do that "bags" and for advanced bike users there is a thing called a "basket" you can put on the back of your bike to carry two of those bags so you don't have to hang them on the handles. Worst case (big family) you can get a strange contraption called a "cargo bike" for 1/4 the price of a small car to haul all the grocery you need (or your new dishwasher) from the shop to your home. Bonus point: It doubles as a mama taxi for small children.

@acedude112 I am too, because what would I do with all that frozen stuff? I mean if you buy fresh stuff, you need a family of 10 that you can't do with 3 bags for 2-3 days. (And in that case I gladly "allow" you a car to haul that if you don't like cargo bikes. It's still a bit stupid, but a lot less than taking a car to buy a pack of cigarettes.)
