    yeah, plus bikes have the advantage of saddle sores, which are pretty sweet

    An EV goes faster than a bike, keeps you warm and dry in foul weather.

    Is it big enough for any back seat action? A bike has no walls. You and your passenger can spread your wings and fly.

    The speed records for both are about the same, the bike obviously wins the endurance records.

    Overall, counting production of the car and batteries and type of fuel used electric cars pollute the earth much more than gasoline cars so I fail to see the point of making them. Solar cars make much more sense.

    ^^^ you on a bicycle might go 35 MPH

    Maybe 150 MPH if you ride it off a cliff, achieving that speed somewhere before you hit the ground.

    China functions well with most people on bikes.

    As I have predicted, by 2020 Americans will be on the same page in recognizing that we're sitting around the campfire, watching the embers die. This is China's century.
