For us our ebikes are our only form of transport, we use them every day for everything from shopping to off-road tours, averaging about 45km each, daily.

We have two Bosch powered hybrid ebikes and two spare powerpacks, and a Nyon for navigation. We changed our tyres from town tyres to all terrain then filled them with slime as out here the plants are spikey.

The terrain and temperatures of Fuerteventura are extreme, with salt, wind and dust, so the bikes get put right to the edge of their capabilities (and beyond, so we always take a tool kit and water). Living on the side of a volcano and having just two local shops (at the bottom) the ebikes have given us much needed independance and life-support system, as well as acres of fun cycling over mountains and volcanoes where most cars dare not go.

Our trips are more then 99% off-road or back-roads were there are few cars (in about 65km we may see 3 or 4 brave people in hire cars)

We decorate the bikes ourselves with a sheepskin 'wrap' and skeletons, skulls and horns from goats and dogs we find on the desert and badlands
