I've gotten into them in a big way since last fall. I've commuted to work every day I could all winter. (not well below freezing, not snowy)
Now, spring is finally upon us in my part of the world and the commute is a lot more pleasant.
I have 3 eBikes now, so my wife, stepdaughter and I went for a nice 20 mile (32 km) ride yesterday. It was broken into three legs, but still...
I originally bought the first eBike thinking I'd commute on it and my wife could take it for bike rides with me, and she could keep up while I was still getting some good exercise. That first one was too heavy for her.
Here are a couple snapshots from strangers. I particularly like how the one person had the lighthouse growing out of my wife's head, instead of putting it off to the side a little.
There was one member at DPR (are you here now?) who often posted how he went for photo rides with his eBike. Another member (skanter, I think) used to motor around NYC on his eScooter taking street photos. You? Have you ever considered an eBike?
(First time attaching images here, I think. I resized them to 1800 pixels on the long edge with MS Paint, as I've heard it is kinder to the original image than letting forum software do it.)
The images were made with my stepdaughter's iPhone 11.
