Default Frugal Transportation

First a question...
Whats more furgal and practical for a 2-3 mile commute to work. A bike
or a Motorcycle?

Speakng of bikes. Have you guys checked out what going on at
Electrabikes.com? They are making bikes that allow you to plant both
feet flat on the ground when you are not moving.
I'm curious as to why bike companies havent catered to overweight /
older riders with lower ride height and larger seats. They are so
concerned with max power output of riders that they seem to have missed
the boat on what the average would be bicycle rider wants.
With near 50 percent of this country overweight we could use a few more
bike riders.
How about wider seats . Seats that arent 5 feet off the ground and
wider tires in the name of better balance. Seems to be alot of room for
improvement.
