The article mentions regular (pedal) bikes are included.
"Pedal bicycles are also included in the generous incentive package, though e-bikes are contributing to one of the biggest jumps in cycling ever across Europe and much of the world."

Be warned: You need to enter a valid phone number. They will call you asking on what you plan on building with the software. I've had that happen to me within a few days of downloading the software.

Some people don't like Steam since its proprietary. I own around 200 games on Steam and almost all of them have Steam's DRM that prevents me from running the game without being logged into Steam.

Some games can be bought on Steam, GoG (DRM-free), and/or their website.

Win2k has 16-bit colour in the tray icons. You can enable 32-bit colour if you hex the explorer.exe.
I've used this program before:

Note: It will timeout when it tries to download the database.
If you want to manually patch it yourself, open explorer.exe in a hex editor and edit this:

Original: 57 6A 2C 6A 40 C7 44 24 18 01 00
Modified: 57 6A 2C 6A 40 C7 44 24 18 19 00

Original explorer.exe MD5: 59cf2b7dced9111f48f51b4b570e672d
Modified explorer.exe MD5: 9ac937ca2217cf5a9b71cd6e9014f0e7

Windows will overwrite your changes since it has file protections. You can fix that via:

If you are curious as to what this changes, you can look at this file in the leaked Win2k source code:
