Community for those focused on sustainable travel. Our society's current levels of energy intensive and frequent travel are not compatible with life on a finite planet. We advocate for long-term slow travel to see the world, and low energy local travel to deeply experience your community. Green washing free zone.

- !rail@feddit.uk ← UK Rail and Trains

related to travel generally:

- !traveltips@feddit.uk ← Europe focus
The communities listed above are decentralized. Centralized instances are omitted as they go against the fedi purpose and it’s better to cultivate digital rights in the free world. That means instances that have a disproportionately large population or are centralized on Cloudflare are not listed.

I mean, I am not suggesting the purpose of an 1000 mile range e-bike is to be the best vehicle to carry someone 1000 miles, rather I chose an absurdly high number to suggest an electric bicycle that basically has infinite charge for what you are using it for. True if you are just cruising long distances a more dirt bike/motorcycle construction makes sense, but then you have a heavy ass vehicle you can’t carry over obstacles.
