I’d like one. I’ll have to see about resurrecting my old schwinn varsity.
One thing I noticed in this video, maybe its just happenstance, but all the people riding the new bikes seem to be men. I wonder how the women feel about being displaced by the new technology? No more transporting sacks on their heads…two women seem to have been replaced by one man and his bike. Is this progress in the modern world? I wonder when someone will donate some jeeps to these people? Oh well.
