    World Bicycle Day

    Wishing you a nice day/ride Pretty sure they let us (e-bikers) also enjoy https://www.un.org/en/observances/bicycle-day To be honest, never heard of it before: also no special occasions here (NL), maybe somewhere in the world this is a big thing? [curious to find out]

    What are your city bike racks like?

    Here (Utrecht, Netherlands) we (because of the number of bikes) have lots of parking for bikes (50% of traffic is done by bike, going shopping/station would be more). Funny question, because I tend not to think about it that often: so I did a little research on all different racks/facilities...

    Why there is no news channel that only airs good news.

    Maybe it's a good sign that only bad news is news: the mediocre/good things happening in the world is the standard (so no reporting): But I agree: would be nice to see some statistics about humanity as a whole, saying we're doing better every decade [except for this stupid sars variation]: less...

    Best Wireless Earbuds for Ebikes

    Also was assuming it might go against attention for traffic, but what I notice when using my headset (active noise control, JVC) is that it takes away the wind and general street sounds, while the unexpected sounds of traffic (cars, bells, traffic lights) are still coming through: so actually...

    Hello from (the center) of the Netherlands

    yeah, the channel is very nice This Canadian guy is not only good in explaining how we Dutch see biking [a way of getting from a to b, a tool, instead of sports equipment], but really good in the whole infra/city planning change we made to get on the bike: from planning in of neighborhoods...

    Hello from (the center) of the Netherlands

    Hi @PedalUma, Looks like you have a more dutch bike, then I have ;) Mine is from a French company (LaPierre) and now about 4 years old, still functioning but after 4 years you simply want something new/extra What I find positive is the Nuvinci/Envolio gear (now having a second, the first one...

    Hello from (the center) of the Netherlands

    Hi All, My name is Tom and currently living in the center of the Netherlands (Utrecht): a place where I moved to because who likes complicated/long commutes: certainly if you don't want a car, and therefore depending on public transport and/or bike. I think my interest in e-bikes was pretty...

    Is this hubless Reevo e-bike real or a scam? Your thoughts on this?

    I was pretty positive about indiegogo projects, but also had my doubts about this bike: probably mainly because I don't know the physics of it but also after reading into the IndieGoGo's risks. Since my bike (LaPierre eden park) wants a brother I was again looking into this bike. After some...
