Hi! Connecticut rider here. Spring is in the air! Could any of you that have done the Walkway over the Hudson (Poughkeepsie) and connecting trails, share your experience with me please? I just got finished watching I segment on public television about it. It looks pretty cool. Worth the trip...

In short, I love my ebike and ride alone all the time. But I have a healthy, reasonably coordinated 64 yr old wife that won't ride. Why? Fear I think. She grew up in NYC, and the only bike experiences she had were negative ones. She won't articulate them much, but I think it involves her...

Back to my new source for brilliant info these days, you! So... I have this new mtn ebike. Bought it as a hobby for road and trail use. Breaking it in lately. Used it on roads... great. Rode it across a field, perfect. Love the versatility of it. But yesterday I took it on a local mtn...

Hey folks, I need some perspective from some of you ebike vets please. I'm trying to learn the nuances of how far I get on a battery charge, get to know my bike, and how far I can go, etc. . When my manufacturer says my bike gets up to 50 miles on a single charge, what exactly does that mean...

Hi. I have a fairly new Magnum Peak. Very pleased so far, but finding surprisingly little on this forum regarding them. Just looking for other Peak owners to share and compare thoughts and experiences with the product. How long you had it? How is the power working for you? How is your...

I'm an old guy with a new bike in the northeast US. Is it normal to be checking temperatures every day and be anxiously awaiting spring? Is this the way it's going to be?

Hi. Forgive this newbie review. You crusty old ebike guys will find this pretty old and basic. But I’m clearly in my honeymoon period… and glowing not only about my new bike, but about Ebikes in general! So, before a big-ass snow storm hits here, I just took my first real ride with my new...

Hey guys. In my effort to get my first-ebike-purchase correct, I'm putting this topic out there for comment: Throttle or no throttle?? I know it's subjective, depends on who you are, how you will use the bike, and essentially not necessary. But if I'm going to spend all this money on a new...

Hi folks, need your opinion please. I’ve been researching for several months and plan to pull the trigger the spring on my first E bike. I’m an older guy, and buying a bike for fun, recreation, trails, roads etc. Basically, trying to get some fun back in my life. So, I want a mountain bike...

Hey guys, I've been researching for a while, will be buying soon for the spring. First bike. Thought I'd put this out there and get your thoughts. I'm buying for fun, recreation, trails, roads... So I want a mountain bike. Honestly, I am an older guy, and I really need some fun in my life...
