completely agree. i see more parents in the morning taking their kids to school by bike and they are usually on an e-bike in office clothes. makes sense - you want to drop your kids off and get to work on time, maybe not get too sweaty before getting into the office. then after work, could have a more leisurely bike ride back home.
i am also of the mindset that the more bikes become convenient for non-enthusiasts and seen as a useful and viable mode of transportation, the better roadway infrastructure and interactions with cars and drivers will be. if i wasn't into bikes and just needed something to get me around, i would pick up a faraday porteur.
