Ranra100374 on January 13, 2024 9:08 pm The practical numbers don’t make sense because you have 20min-1h/day versus 2min/day. I’m going to assume you meant 2 hr/day. I think an option in-between the two is an e-bike. You get most of the ecological benefits and economic benefits of a bicycle, but a shorter commute. I would say for me, I have a 240 W peak motor, and my time is around 60% of what Google Maps predicts for bike commuting.
