With the future of oil and gas uncertain, I got an e-bike conversion kit for my bicycle to turn it into an electric bike. This kit contains everything you need to convert a normal bike into an electric bike except the battery.
You can find the kits here:

These kits contain a 24 volt 250 watt motor with a drive gear box and sprocket. There is a chain and sprocket for your bike. And literally everything else you need to convert your bike to electric but the battery.
I have been experimenting with 18650 and lithium batteries for ebikes anyway so I have a bunch of materials on hand to make my own battery.
I plan to use the bike for most of my travels to town and back when the weather permits. Our town is 7 miles from our homestead.
I also ordered a covered trailer which is on the way. The trailer will allow me to haul groceries or other items home from town as needed.
I will soon be able to travel for free by charging up my e-bike battery with solar power on the homestead.
