    I dual use acoustic and electric bikes they serve different purposes and man it's not an either or thing it can be a yes and sort of proposition. Like I have an ebike for being a commuting bike for work and cargo but an acoustic for not rides. Both beloved by me.

    I don't believe e-bikes, 'are cheating' per se, but something has happened and many people who are opponents of E-bikers subscribe to this theory. And that is, if you're using an e-bike to go from point a, to point b, {rather than} a car, that requires gasoline which is the mode of transportation for most people today, 2024, they think, you're trying to beat the system. And it's this way, that many people believe e-bikes 'are cheating.' Though I'm all for a work commuter 'speed hacking' his Haibike to increase his pedaling assistance, up to 24 mph instead of 20, I do not endorse 'e-bikes' that are basically an illegal minibike, on our roads. We've seen the problems this causes. My hope is, that these iffy modes transportation don't cast a spotlight on law abiding E-bikers who enjoy excellent health benefits, but do not contribute to carbon emission. What's cheating about that?

  • @colombiancyclist

    it's not about feeling butthurt because a fully functional adult with no bike handling skills zooms past us, it's more about the entitled privilege of freeloading on the efforts of others, for years cyclists had been segregated by motor vehicles, bicycle activist had come a long way advocating and pushing local governments to build the infrastructure we have today to now have to share it with a new wave of motor vehicles. I'm not gonna call people with disabilities cheaters, I'm going to call them for what they are: handicapped. A handicap decal system needs to be implemented so that these adult power wheels can share the privilege of using infrastructure meant for real bicycles.

    • @lazyrider9847
      @lazyrider9847 3 дня назад

      Calling those with ebikes entitled, freeloaders and handicapped makes you sound like an elitest snob. I'm sorry that you had to spend years, and pay all that money out of pocket to get bike lanes and multi-use trails built (sarcasm in case you don't get it). That tax money was paid by more non-riders than riders. I took up riding again several years ago. The assist of an ebike makes it possible for me (and many others) to enjoy long rides without feeling totally wasted. The assist doesn't mean that we are getting less exercise, in fact the opposite is true (backed by numerous studies). On most days, I ride 20-30 miles, using the lowest assist level, using the gearing as intended. Last Summer, I averaged 56 miles/day on a 700+ mile solo tour. I do ride a non-ebike as well, but only about half those distances. I do agree that those who ride without pedalling, using throttle only are a problem. However, there are some people that occasionally need to use the throttle on hills or in traffic. Personally, my two ebikes and one recumbent trike do not have throttles.

    • @lazyrider9847
      @lazyrider9847 3 дня назад

      BTW, in most US states, Class 1 ebikes (no throttle, assist stops at 20 MPH), are allowed everywhere that regular bikes are. As for being dangerous to others, I've seen some on regular bikes doing well in excess of 20 MPH on multi-use paths posted at 15 MPH. It's not the technology, it's the person acting responsibly, and being courteous to others. I had one guy in spandex pass me on the right while I was stopped (on the far right side of the path) for a water break. He missed me by inches, and gave no notice that he was approaching from behind. I use a bell, and/or say "coming up on your right". A jerk is a jerk, no matter what he is riding.

    • @colombiancyclist

      @lazyrider9847 spandex is what David Lee Roth used to wear back when he had the body for it. Most geezers think we wear it for looks, but it's for functionality, I guess you wouldn't know when you've never pushed yourself in your life, and you've never broken a sweat 🫵🤡

    • @colombiancyclist
      @colombiancyclist 3 дня назад

      @lazyrider9847 even if the infrastructure was paid with sales from girls out cookies it doesn't change the fact that the government doesn't move a finger if nobody says something about it(meaning I didn't pay for it but our efforts made a difference in case you didn't get it 🐒), you say I'm an elitist snob but what others think of me is none of my business(try it out). It is what it is, your long reply comes off as a cheap way to validate your lazy ways, as stated on your user name, at least you're honest about it. Try harder power wheels 🍼

    • @RP-dy5mu
      @RP-dy5mu 8 дней назад

      It never was about transportation for Craig. Craig only ever was in it so he can be holier than thou at motorists. But he can't do the same to e-bike users so that's why these kinds of people say cheating instead.

    • @lazyrider9847
      @lazyrider9847 3 дня назад

      @@RP-dy5mu As I mentioned above, many studies show that we get as much or more exercise on ebikes, because we enjoy riding farther. I've lost several pounds, my blood pressure is down, and my heart health is excellent. When I was younger, I had a Schwin 10-speed, and rode it everywhere. The e-assist makes it possible for me to ride again, and farther, all the while enjoying the ride, instead of seeing it as a difficult workout. The bike snobs should mind their own business. One size does not fit all.
