Low-tech Magazine was born in 2007 and has seen minimal changes ever since. Because a website redesign was long overdue — and because we try to practice what we preach — we decided to build a low-tech, self-hosted, and solar-powered version of Low-tech Magazine. The new blog is designed to radically reduce the energy use associated with accessing our content.

In this situation other "person" taking the bus are multiples times heavier than the ones taking the ebike. Inducing a strain not only on the bus but roads as well.

Imo we have to see this site as a statement : it's possible to build low tech , light website, running off-grid.
