A nice dream. Even if it exists, it would cost more than the bike, I guess. Anyway, a little charging will be OK, but as the bikes (shiNIN's one will need charging too) stand under the starry ceiling, the charger shouldn't be left unattended for whole days or nights. I think I'll give the batteries a jolt time to time. But it's really 'energy needed for my commute', thus should be noted somehow
Anyway, I did FAS this morning as I chose the 'nice' route to see if the road works have finished there. Well, almost. And did a bump start
I had the usual 1km FAS halfway, entering and rolling (partly) through a village, and the initial roll is longer this way too.
Ice, snow? I don't plan to ride in snowy weather, that's too much for me too. Ice is the same, but it's pretty dry now. Last week we had frost and fog together, I was a bit afraid to ride home, but I made it in the end
There were places when the road was white, I was extra careful with steering, practically did not lean at turns, and handled the throttle and the brakes very gently. And it's especially true to our street, which is a dirt-, gravel-, and grassy road. Frozen grass is slippery
