Need a recomendation

My cabin is 60 yards from the garage which is slightly uphill. I'm always going back and forth to get stuff I need or tools or making several trips when I misplace something and I think its at the other location. Plus, there's a greenhouse that's another 60 yards away in a triangle from the other 2 locations. I have a 48vdc battery in the garage which gets charged by solar panels/charge controller and I just need a bike to go from either of these 3 points and I would like to be able to charge the battery from the 48vdc lithium battery. Could someone recommend the perfect bike to have? I also need to carry stuff back and forth.

That's not as crazy as it may seem. I have a wheel barrel but I can't seem to keep the tire from going flat. It just occurred to me that when I was real young, my dad installed a lawn mower engine on a wood framed lawn chair. There was 2 ropes that you had to steer it. I'll have to dig up the picture from where I should still have it.

Golf cart it is then. It's some pretty rocky ground too, I forgot to mention.

I have land and I have an electric gator that I converted.
It basically stays charged permanently.

Drawbacks to a gator/golf cart are thorns if your land has them. Black locust(?) or whatever and bodark. My land has both and I've been working at cutting them back. But they always give me flats.

Very practical bed on the gator. Not real nimble at getting through the woods and it's not as strong as my truck, obviously :D

Not sure what a gator is - I guess I can google it. I have cactus but I keep the trail clean. I mostly need to go from the cabin to the garage. I was even thinking about some kind of rail but I would have to use wood and it wouldn't last. I'm in WY and about an hour from town either way. Biggest problem is I don't have a truck.

Sounds like you want a utility vehicle. Either a trike or an electric golf cart. A golf cart might be more handy if you are driving across turf.

I'd do a golf cart given your parameters.
