Electric bicycles. Any comments?

Post by . ._ »

Hi folks!

After Shell's record profits, I have considered selling my Caddy and buying an electric bicycle.

F U C K BIG OIL AND THE INSURANCE COMPANIES!

Any advice on buying an electric bicycle would be appreciated. (I'm serious!)

This summer past, I parked the old Buick, for the most part, and just used straight peddle power. Everyone at the airport thought I was nuts. For $50 each, you can get wonderful studded tires for bikes as well that grip extremly well on icy sidewalks for the winter commute. I bought the bike, brand new, for $400, and have put about $150 worth of accessories into it, all paid off and then some by not having to line Shell, Exxon, or Imperial's pockets. DAMN THE MAN!!

Oh, and it helps keep the beer belly off...

Check the Oxygen scooters on this site too.
Ive also seen add on kits online that you can use to modify an existing mountain bike too.

OK, maybe that was leftover booze and lack of sperm talking earlier.

I drove to work today in the Caddy, and MAN that's a sweet car! OK Shell, I hate you, but I love your Coca-Cola. It makes me laze down the road on a leather couch.

F u c k it!

I'm ALL GREENHOUSE GAS BABY!!! No matter what the price!

Junkily yours,
