Perhaps you like the idea of commuting by bike, but are put off by the thought of hunching over the handlebars in the wind and the rain. If so, the semi-enclosed VeMoo recumbent e-trike may be just what you're looking for.
I wonder if this can go through the chicanes installed on most cycling paths around here.
Unfortunately I also struggle to find where such a vehicle could comfortably ride here. My province is slowly banning electric micro vehicles because “they are too dangerous for others on bike paths and also too dangerous for themselves when mixed with car traffic”. Hell, people here call child services on parents riding cargo bikes with their kids because it’s “dangerous and irresponsible”.
I’ve been interested by a variation of these for years but realistically speaking, places to ride it are limited, and my landlords won’t let me park this in the garage instead of a car.
The whole concept of being a very small and light vehicle has unfortunately no place in current legislation where I live. It’s already difficult for plain simple bikes. Things like this are often in a “grey area” and sometimes they even end up being banned when they become popular, so getting one is kind of risky.
