Savvy trips on two wheels β€’ 2025-03-15

It’s time to write a report on my goal:

  • Scooter πŸ›΄
    • rides this week: +3
    • total rides: 71
  • Bicycle 🚲
    • rides this week: 0
    • total rides: 248

I bought a one-year insurance policy for the scooter. The price was $20. My previous insurance was cheaper, but it also had a shorter duration.

I also looked at the prices of new scooters:

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

I think it would be cool to have a scooter with a 100 km range. However, I don’t know where I would actually ride it. A 100-kilometer trip would take about 5 hours. You could reach another city, but it’s easier and less risky by train πŸ€”πŸ’­

And here is a comparison of my speed on an incline of 15% over a distance of 3 kilometers:

  1. Bicycle: 10 km/h
  2. Scooter: 14 km/h

The scooter is slightly faster 😴 I measured the same path twice: first on the bike, then on the scooter, using the Zeopoxa Cycling app.
