I have been using a bicycle for more than 50 years 😉 , and this habit has not changed. However, with the transition to an E-bike, you get more options. For example, here in this province, you can travel from Hulst to Vogelwaarde in 30 minutes.
It is necessary that in the Netherlands, all legal electric scooters be accepted as electric bicycles up to 25 km per hour and not prohibited. In neighboring countries, this is allowed, and there is a wide range of electric shared transport. Public transport in this province is minimal and extremely expensive.”
