The Pope gets an Electric Bike

There are a lot of people who have eBikes now, most of them are the usual suspects when it comes to caring for the environment- Ed Begley jr, Darryl Hannah, William Shatner, Prince Charles, Leo DiCaprio, Arnold Schwartzenegger, Adam Savage, Miley Cyrus....

As a matter of fact, when Arnold got into eBikes, he also set up a $1500 rebate for the purchase of new electric motorcycles.  But that is California.

However.

Back in July the Pope got an electric bicycle.  In this picture Dr Dieter Zetsche, Chair of the Board of Mercedes Benz, is handing over the keys to a Daimler Smart eBike.
