Good points, [MENTION=365305]kickstart[/MENTION]. I'm concerned not just with effort but with time. I don't know how much time it would cost me to ride a Dutch bike, but it might be as much as ten minutes. It currently takes me about 70 minutes each way, and I'd rather not add to it. But I think I will rebuild one of my bikes Dutch style this year, for errands.
