at one time, BC was giving out subsidies for ebikes (income test so most here wouldn't qualify) but I still contend that ebike is the fastest way to recoup an investment if you're able to commute to work. Not EV's.
ebikes/scooters are the way to go. idk why anyone would commute with a real scooter around here. none of the benefits of weaving through tight traffic/streets like you get in europe. just get an ebike that's deregulated or not technically legal that can do like 40-45 and rip it on the shoulders/bike lanes. if your commute has lots of traffic you might get to your destination a lot faster than with any motor vehicle.
I dunno man - too many dangerous drivers. You get hit while ripping it on your scooter and you're toast!

There was a news article couple days ago about ppl ripping it on EV dirt bikes on bike lanes. Probably not a good idea as it makes the PEV community look bad.

They wouldn’t want to steal this bike.
One it’s almost 120lbs in weight.
Two it’s self locking and gps tracked with the ninebot app.
Three I got an AirTag in the underseat storage compartment
Four it flashes its horn and lights making a shit ton of noise if it’s moved or touched while in lock mode.

The fuck are you talking about. We live in Richmond. Half the white people here don’t even lock their back doors. They can steal it, I don’t give a shit. I’ll buy another one.

Yeh I got it for 1k in 2022. I gave it to spy balloon but she never used it. So it sat and sat until I returned my e-bike back to Costco(it had a flat tire on the rear) and just started using her Segway to ride to the gym.

When I first got a set of two wheels, I had a 49cc Honda Jazz that topped out at 60km/h, or something like that. It was slow, and still is slow, but man, it was one of the best scooters I ever owned.

Only take it out if you have somewhere safe to store it/charge it at the end point.
I folds but still weighs 65lbs, just barely fits in my rear seats.
Got into my first wreck last week. Busted my foot.
those E scooters are dangerous as hell. Ive binned it so many times in germany when i rented those dumb Lime scooters. all my shit when flying onto the sidewalk.

Problem with lime scooters or even the entry level E scooters like the Xiaomi, or Ninebot max is their tiny platform, and narrow twig of a handle bar. At slow speeds they are okay, but once you are going they are not stable.
Currently on a road trip in Gold River. There's fuck all nothing here, but I did have a very cool moment. We drove by Strathcona Park and Lodge, which I remember 15 years ago I distinctly said to my friend that it would be cool if we could find this road again when we're older. We were in the school bus and it was a helluva road (Hwy 28 between Campbell River and Gold River). Gonna go back and see if they'll let me explore the facilities for old times sake.
