But you're slightly missing the point, astra. If I use my bike instead of my car for local journeys, I am reducing my CO2 emissions. Electricity is a lot "cleaner" than internal combustion engines. And because I'm a lazy person, there's no way that I'd use an "unpowered" bike for journeys of any length.
