    Total e-bike ban after a fatality in Key Biscayne, FLA

    "there is no XXXVIIth amendment given the people the right to keep and bear e-bikes." There probably wouldn't have been a 2nd Amendment either if the authors had a crystal ball that could see the future.

    Ebike I want to pedal

    All Ebikes are meant to be peddled. The best approach for exercise would be to use a low PAS. (pedal assist) and then raise it when tired. As far as ease of pedaling I think tires are more important than weight with thinner higher pressure being easier to pedal. On the other hand a fat tire...

    Can't figure how to do it??

    I'm old too so never grew up with these things or anything like them. I just went to the "what's new" section of EBR via Safari and then bookmarked the page. I'm sure it's basically the same with Firefox. I use a MacBook Air.

    Hearing aid user

    My hearing has been bad for many years. I've tried the cheap over the counter rigs but they were all pretty bad. Recently I decided to go to Miracle Ear get properly tested and decided to go for a set of rechargeable BTH RIC aids. I'll be going back in a couple of days to pick them up. I'm...

    Stuff you find on the road.

    Riding home one afternoon I passed a site with a new house going up. Out front was a circa 1900 8' X 7' two piece oak display case with a "free" sign on it. Quickly went home, grabbed my truck and went and got it. Cleaned it up a little and sold it to an antique dealer for $500.

    Right of way question

    There are no bike lanes. In a few places there is an extra 2 or 3 feet of paving in some areas which is used as a bike lane. Traveling with traffic is just common sense as when a car comes up from behind they have to slow down and wait for a safe area to pass which is preferable to coming at...

    Right of way question

    Exactly. I often ride in Acadia National Park which is just a short few miles ride from my house. Most of that is one way and bikes can only ride one way the same as cars.

    Right of way question

    Sounds simple to me. One rides with traffic not against it. He should have been on the other side of the street.

    Are my assumptions correct?

    Since the only difference between a class 1 and 2 is a throttle, I simple deactivate mine before going on the trail.

    Front page LA Times today regarding Ebikes

    "Taking guns, away from millions of people like me, isn't going to reduce mass shootings." I don't believe that is true. The difference between a "good guy with a gun" and a "bad guy with a gun" is a momentary bad decision. If, when said person makes that decision, they have a gun with...

    Like a lot of problems humans tend to deal with after it's too late.

    Make it a rebate rather than a tax credit.

    Multiple e-bikes, one battery?

    I have a Rad Rover and a Rad Mini. I don't ride the mini all that much but since the batteries for both are identical I simply alternate batteries mostly in the Rover so both batteries are in regular use.

    More Rad lawsuit fallout? (good for the consumer)

    What I've learned from owning my Rad Rover is that to remove the front wheel I have to completely unscrew it, remove the axle, and then smack the tire a few times with a rubber mallet before it drops off.
