The sporty Fiat 500e is Stellantis's first EV sold in the US -- and it looks great.

At $34k, the Fiat 500e ~$20k cheaper than the average US EV. And weighing under 3,000 lbs, it's 1/3 as heavy as a bloated Hummer EV.

“Those cyclists now on the streets and roads of central Paris are not Spandex-clad professionals as seen on the Tour de France but everyday transportation cyclists.” Carlton Reid forbes.com/sites/carltonr…

People: we can’t afford cars
Car companies: here is a loan for 20 years

People: we don’t want to breath in pollutants
Car companies: here is an EV so you breath in only the tire particles

People: we want sidewalks
Cities: you should not walk during high pollution levels anyway

The weather is looking more promising for a nice eclipse stream on Monday from the cargo bike.

Plus, Mark Wagenbuur will be here with me! So please, share the stream announcement and stop by for a watch if you can. The more the merrier.

Spotted cyber truck for the second time.

It looks even more ridiculous on low speed neighborhood streets than it looked on a highway.

Less than 1% of the world’s population accounts for more than 50% of flights.

It’s these frequent flyers, often corporate travel, that have the biggest role to play in reducing aviation's climate impact.

Scrolling on the internet on feels like cycling on a 45mph shared road.

You are in equal parts amazed by the experience and terrified for your future without knowing what is real.

There is a discussion on my Facebook neighborhood page about kids riding bikes/e-scooters TO SCHOOL on some short sidewalk segments.

Bruh, if you are mad about sharing a sidewalk that you rarely use, think about sharing the road with all the parents who will now start driving.

Drivers should receive an automatic fine for stopping in bike boxes (i.e., Advanced Stop Lines), designed to give cyclists a safe place to stop and allow them to be in front of cars so they have more time to go when traffic lights change.
