VBike

VBike, in Vermont, is a non-profit cycling advocacy group:

VBike is a unique advocacy group dedicated to bringing super bike mobility to Vermont. We’re talking a bike revolution. Electric-assist cargobikes for families & households, e-bikes and e-trikes for seniors & commuters – it’s a game changer! Now we can get over the hills, ride our kids, smile, and not be confined to the automobile.

In my experience it’s really hard to get information about anything other than “regular” bicycles here on PEI; while bike shops occasionally get in tricycles or three-wheel recumbent bicycles, they tend to be presented as a rare, unusual and expensive.

It seems clear that the future is going to demand that we use bicycles more, and for that to be accessible to all of us we’re going to have to tackle a broader range of active transportation options.
