What do you do with your vehicle when you're at your destination?
I've been considering an e-bike or similar for quick trips from my house to coffee shops, bars, the beach, etc. It seems like a great option to not worry about parking and avoid traffic. But I can't figure out what I would do with such an expensive thing (compared to a regular bike) when I get there.
Do you lock them to bike rack, or whatever random thing you can find? What about scooters, can you even lock them? Is that secure enough?
I really enjoyed shared scooters since you don't have to worry about that issue at all, until the city council in my city regulated them out of business.

I have a GoTrax scooter and it folds up, so at work I'll typically throw it under my desk. If I'm out and about, I'll lock it up to a bike rack through the rear tire/brake folded up and I haven't had any issues so far thankfully. Probably 600+ miles no issues. (So far)
Are you happy with the scooter instead of an ebike?
I think so mostly because the footprint of 2 bikes vs 2 foldable scooters. I'll admit though, I've never owned an ebike, so I can't say for sure which might be better. Ultimately, all my trips are 5 miles or less, so utilizing battery power 100% isn't an issue, but I imagine with a bike, it's easier to go much further.
