Transportation


I love these little moped bikes. They are handy for a quick zip around downtown, deliveries, or a good way to curtail traffic. They have a very simple body, consisting mostly a metal frame joined to a small motor. This one in particular is not as stylized as most I have seen but I will be sure to send a glimpse of the cooler ones within time.

I think as city populations continue to grow, transportation options like this are a better decision for urban commutes. They share movable space with pedestrians, are less dangerous than higher speed vehicles, and they save on fuel costs. Even though walking and bicycling are the most efficient options, I wouldn't mind having one of these little nuggets around.
