I think you are wrong on saying "less than 10 % of the miles we drive would be satisfied by home charging.

I didn't get rid of my e-bike but did buy an electric scooter which is governed at 22MPH. I must say I use lots. It is just so easy to just step on , sit on if I wish and do my errands. It may just be going to the mail box which is about 3/4 of a block away, up a hill. It is a toss up with the...

Best to not push the envelope on a bicycle and stay out of dicey routes, One could be dead right and end up DEAD.

I hav a bike with a Brose motor (Ride1Up) and I feel the same about it as you do. I love silent. After all it is a bicycle so should be silent.

Well if you are the number the one narcissist in the USA or at least ahead of whoever is number two he must feel entitled to call people derogitory names. What a crude and disrespectful idiot.

Please and thank you are just plain good manners in my opinion. In days gone by men always removed their hats when in public places, church and certainly while eating in a restaurant etc. We also opened the door for ladies. It looks like some didn't teach their children or just didn't know better.
