gollark: But not as good as ***NUCLEAR BIKES***.
gollark: As well as making it much more practical to drive arbitrarily long distances, it is nuclear and thus COOL and GOOD. No downsides!
gollark: No more range anxiety, just load a fresh fuel rod in every few years.
gollark: Actually, nuclear fission to power an *e-*bike is silly! It would be more efficient to directly drive the wheels with the turbines.
gollark: But only two of them, so it's a bike.
