They See us Rolling: Replace Your Carriage
Explaining E-Bikes To A Victorian Child: Pedal Power with a Boost!
Dear, dear little Victorians,
I hope this letter finds you well and in good cheer! I have something quite exciting to share with you all. Have you ever heard of an e-bike? No? Well, let me tell you all about it!
An e-bike, my dears, is a bicycle that is powered by electricity. Can you imagine that? No more huffing and puffing as you pedal up steep hills or through the busy streets of London. No, no, no. With an e-bike, all you have to do is turn a little switch, and off you go! It’s like magic, I tell you!
But don’t be fooled my little cherubs. These e-bikes are not for the faint of heart. They can go faster than you can say “knackered” (that’s Victorian slang for tired, in case you didn’t know). So be sure to hold on tight and watch out for those pesky carriages!
Now, I know you may be thinking, “But Socially Strawberry, I already have a magnificent horse to ride about. Why would I want one of these newfangled machines?” Let me tell you, an e-bike is much easier to maintain than a horse. No need to feed it oats or clean up its messes. Plus, they’re much more environmentally friendly. No more smelly horse farts polluting the air.
And let’s not forget all the toffs (that’s Victorian slang for rich people) who will be green with envy when they see you zipping past them on your fancy e-bike. Just give them a cheeky wink and a nod as you pass by.
Now, I must warn you e-bikes do not come cheap. But don’t let that dampen your spirits! Save your shillings and do whatever it takes to get your hands on one of these marvels. Trust me; it will be worth it.
Well, that’s all for now, my darlings. I hope this letter has convinced you to give e-bikes a go. Until next time, stay safe and keep pedaling!
Your devoted friend,
Socially Strawberry
