They were most prominent at the marathon where the camera operators and commentators rode in side cars of electric bikes to avoid polluting the air the runners were about to breathe. Are such bikes commercially available? Are they affordable? I'd appreciate any info I can get, and I'll summarize if I get any concrete info.
