Electric bike lets you keep being lazy, only outside this time

electrobike-pi_48.jpg

Riding a bike is a great way to get some fresh air, some exercise, and get to where you're going on the cheap. It's all well and good except for one of those things: exercise. Who needs that? Not me, that's for sure. I try to stay as inactive as humanly possible, so riding a bike really screws up my life plan.

Thank the sweet lord for electric bikes, right? Units like this Electrobike Pi allow you to get that transportation and fresh air without having to do so much work. It's got an electric motor that'll give you a whopping 1 horsepower of oomph, which might sound pretty wussy, but we're talking about turning your bike into the equivalent of a horse. That's pretty great if you ask me, as horses are much stronger and faster than I am. I mean, you can get goin' to a whopping 46 mph on this thing, which is probably faster than I'd feel comfortably going on the streets of NYC. But hey, at least I wouldn't be using my legs.
