@Cyberlibris "À bicyclette, l’homme va de trois à quatre fois plus vite qu’à pied, tout en dépensant cinq fois moins d’énergie" est faux. "5 fois moins" est vrai pour la meme distance, par pour le meme temps. Donc il compte 2 fois. — PolitiTweet.org

4) Reduce risk: a- Flashing lights [front & back] b- Bike couloir or path/neighborhoods, no main arteries. c- No thin-tire road bike [only commuter/hybrid] d- Assume model error w/traffic lights; every truck/SUV w/Trupist stickers is a missile guided by a drunk Russian conscript — PolitiTweet.org

3) Actually there is a proposal for tax cuts for e-bicycles in the f. package. But, curiously, not for regular bicycles which are even more env. friendly. — PolitiTweet.org

2) Note: An electric car (say a Tesla) has between 600 to 1100 the horsepower of a 500W electric-assist bicycle. So why does one pay sales tax on an E-bicycle in NY AND get a tax credit for an electric car? — PolitiTweet.org

@GGCanto In Westchester, it used to be dangerous. Now, plenty of bike lanes and drivers are used to bicycles. Plus, use a flashing light. — PolitiTweet.org

Hope du Jour: the electric-assist bicycle has the potential to turn every hilly city into Amsterdam* **. * It is vastly more energy efficient than any other form of individual transportation. ** Disclaimer: I live in hilly places & only use regular bicycles. For now. — PolitiTweet.org

Aleppo, the longest lasting sophistication throughout history --wealthier than most of Europe ~1800. An archetypical trading city-state swallowed & destroyed by a centralized "modern" identity-driven nation-state. Lost its Jews in the 40s-60s, its Christian/Armenians recently. https://t.co/VL2DOh87Yh — PolitiTweet.org
