      definitely easier with no need to balance. It’s funny though because it does take a little practise to learn to use, you have to unlearn turning the handles to correct for a lean, the first time anyone ride it then always just end up turning in circles. It’s a pricey bike, but it’s very worth it IMO.

          Trust me, Canada is not much better, I moved specifically to one of the best biking cities in the province specifically because I just hate driving so much. Gotta be loud and annoying to the city to get it to happen, because the only thing stopping it is the political will to do it.
