Bicycle and E-Scooter • 2025-03-15

It's time to write a report on my goal

• Scooter 🛴
  • Trips per week: +3
  • Total trips: 71
• Bicycle 🚲
  • Trips per week: 0
  • Total trips: 248

I bought a one-year insurance policy for my scooter for $20. My previous insurance was cheaper but had a shorter duration.

I also checked out the prices of new scooters:

• Electric scooter with a range of 100 kilometers: $700
• Electric scooter with a range of 60 kilometers: $450

I think it would be awesome to have a scooter with a 100-kilometer range. But I'm not sure where to ride it. A 100-kilometer trip would take about 5 hours. I could go to another city, but the train is easier and safer.

Here's a comparison of my speed when climbing a 15% gradient for a distance of 3 kilometers:

1. Bicycle: 10 kilometers per hour
2. Scooter: 14 kilometers per hour

The scooter is slightly faster 😴 I measured the same path twice, once on a bicycle and then on a scooter using the Zeopoxa Cycling app.
