Why ride an E-Bike/Scooter?
Electric bike [E-Bike] and electric scooter in Hawaii prove to be the fun vehicles for personal,
economic and environmental benefits. We truly set an example for residents from all other places.
Riding an E-Bike/Scooter is like riding a general bike but without much sweat. In fact, riding a
pedalling bike daily to work is not always pleasant in this warm climate in Hawaii. With an E-Bike,
one has no longer worried about a long way or an uphill, while still enjoys a nice sports activity
and always be able to find a parking place. The E-bike/scooter offers much more comforts than
pedaling a traditional bicycle.
The economic benefits of E-Bikes/Scooters are obvious, in comparing with buying hybrid cars or
even noisy gas mopeds. E-Bikes are considerably low cost. Except its low price, one can easily
save 75% of his/her gas spending after having an E-Bike. Just remember, E-Bike / E-Scooter
only need minimal maintenance. Thus, riding an E-Bike or E-Scooter can turn your daily commute
to a Money-Saving experience.
Let us do a simple calculation ($2.35/Gal), cars cost about $0.20-0.50 per mile in fuel in town.
Giving that you drive 5000 miles per year, your gas spending is about $1500 at least in a year.
Having an E-Bike or E-Scooter basically saves 75% of your gas spending (~ $1,125 to $2,625)
in the first year, enough to cover your investment. For some families having SUV, truck and other
gas suckers, their saving will be much greater. So anyone investing in his/her E-Bike will find
tremendous savings.
Particularly, when the economy is slow, Gas prices are high and having paycuts /furloughs, you
need to reduce your spending. One of the big spendings is your car and maintenance. Now, your
E-Bike or an E-Scooter can help!
The environmental benefit is most important because E-Bikes/Scooters have no emissions at all,
regardless of reduced resource consumption (less material, fuel, and infrastructure). Reducing
CO2 emissions is most urgent because of global warming. The average car emits one pound
of CO2 for every mile driven. If one rides an E-Bike or E-Scooter daily, your 75% saving in gas
spending literally is your contribution to the reduction of green house gas emission (that equals to
3750 pounds of CO2 per year). Think about, my fellows, you are not only saving $$$ for yourself,
but also saving the world - no joking - on a daily basis.
Electric bikes/Scooters are easy to use; push and go. They save time in two ways: 1) For errands
up to 30-50 miles and on some congested commutes, E-Bikes/Scooters are quicker than the car;
2) Their low cost means you work fewer hours supporting them.
The E-Bikes/Scooters are equipped with all safety devices for riding during daytime and night.
With an E-Bike/Scooter, riding around cars is safe.
Your health and fitness will improve. Believe or not, E-Biking/Cruise is sports, good for your
fitness and health. If having foot problems, the benefit will be more obvious. Because of the motor
in the bike/scooter, you will actually be riding that bike/scooter more often. In fact, you will find
more fun and enjoyment of your life daily! Traffic snarls aren't frustrating and stressful to you, and
you are no longer "beating the system".
How Much We Spend to Live with A Car ?
To most of us, automobiles represent a fast way to get where we're going. But auto expenses
(including both ownership and operating cost) are costly. When all included, they make the true
costs of driving a car much higher than we realize. Your and my "True Costs" worksheet below

have convinced us how much we're spending on our car each year. Those are direct costs.
Indirectly, through many types of taxes, we also pay for the land, roads, "free"ways, bridges,
and tunnels. Through government, we also pay to provide cleaning, landscaping, irrigation,
signs, signals, reflectors, and police and emergency services. According to the American
Automobile Association, a new car costs over $6,000 a year to operate.
In summary, electric bikies/scooters, for errands and short commutes, offer an alternative to the
high costs of driving. Obviously, maintenance & energy costs are minimal. So every mile you ride
an electric bike/scooter, instead of driving, saves you money. Meanwhile, you are contributing to
protect our environment.

The Best in 2008
In August, 2008, Henk and a bunch of his friends
from Blue Planet Foundation in Hawaii went to
Burning Man, a festival in the desert 100 miles north
of Reno, Nevada, attended by some 50,000 people
(pictures on Facebook, video on YouTube (Burning
Man Mastermind)). They took a weeks worth of food
and drinks, pack it in an RV and expect something
along the lines of Carnaval in Brazil meets
Woodstock. People wore the craziest outfits (clothing
is optional), built the most outrageous structures
(towers, domes, tents and art object), walk, ride
bicycles or cought rides on extravagantly decorated
"art cars". Everyone gave stuff to other people and
expected nothing in return (no money except for
externally brought in dire necessities (water,
gasoline, toilet servicing, that kind of thing)). They
built a giant Tetris machine "Tetrion" where people
could play at night (all night). Henk built his "Peacock
Bike", and electric moped with a peacock tail on it
(twirling flags by day, colorful lights at night). He said
it was great fun if you could handle extreme desert
conditions (very cold at night, very hot by day and
major zero visibilty sandstorms) -- Henk is the
founder for Blue Planet Foundation - a non-profit
organization based in Honolulu, Hawaii
