30 miles is laughably low. A single ride would drain it for me. To go to store it would take 10 miles, not counting anything else.

I recommend going to a closer store.

Why? For less convenient, choice, and worse prices?

A 10 mile round trip would probably take about 3 hours, it probably isn't as far as you think it is.

I work 18 kilometres away from where I live, that takes me 45 minutes on my acoustic bike. That's just a little longer than 10 miles. The round trip is ~an hour and a half

Are you walking or cycling?

3 hours? How slow do you bike? I average 25 to 30mph on a non powered mountain bike. I could walk that in 3 hours.

Literally. Especially on a mountainbike averaging 50kmh is insane.

Probably own a speed pedelec. They average that top speed.

But then you could just buy an electric moped instead.

Says unpowered mountainbike in the post though. Can only imagine they meant 30kmh
