Nice, but also fuck cars. Is there a bicycle option for a more civilized age?
This is dangerously close to a Star Wars quote
Oh, my bad, you are right. Can you offer a better choice of words?
Ain't towing your boat on a bike 🤷♂️
Most people don't need to tow a boat, and those that do only need to do so a minority of the time.
People should have the option to bike to where they need to. Instead everything is basically designed around cars being the only valid form of transportation.
Not to mention that you don't need a massive obnoxious truck to tow a boat, which the previous commenter most likely also thinks.
Okay, those people have cars available to them. I for one tow probably 20 weekends a year 🤷♂️.
But they should have a safe means of biking.
And your use case/case is in the minority.
Then maybe op of comment shouldn't make generations 🤷♂️
I don't understand what you're trying to say.
Depends. Rowboat? No problem.
Touché
The one day you actually use it?
I tow my car probably 20 weekends a year 🤷♂️
You might want to look into getting a different car if you're having it towed that much.
Race car.
You're just like everyone else!
Most Americans tow thier boats and race cars half half the year!
Ok guy
I never said I was?
I know. You're just trying to brag.
👌👍
You don't need a truck to tow a boat either, especially not a big one. Probably nearly any motor vehicle could tow the majority of boats that are being towed, not that most people who own a truck are toeing boats and not that boats are being towed often anyway. Just rent something the one day a year you take the boat out if you need to. It'll save you money in the end.
Any medium sized boat with the ability to go fast is going to be about 5500-6500 at the bottom end. You might get one of those with an ultra light trailer but not much more. There are plenty of popular boats that you need a 3/4 ton for.
When our species develops a philosophy without the need for accumulation of wealth, a inflatable kayak will do and can be easily transported by biclycle.
Oh once the planet only does what you find enjoyable👌👍
