    Friends Don't Let Friends Ride E-Bikes

    I'm not an e-biker yet, but I'm considering it for the future. My husband and I are thinking of moving to Seattle. I'm physically limited in how far I can walk by pain from degenerative discs, a tilting of my vertebrae, and fibromyalgia, to the point of qualifying for a disabled parking sticker...

    Anyone with a spinal fusion?

    Hello! The trike you posted looks super comfy! I am wondering where you ride? Are you in a mainly surbuban area? Stick mainly to trails?

    Oh wow. That really does check off so many of my needs! And it's got that sleek, kind of vintage feel of a Schwinn Cruiser, too :) It's definitely in the more affordable range. Thank you so much for the suggestion.

    Hello! I’ve just now learned about even the existence of electric bikes within the last few days. I’m possibly moving to Seattle, so an electric bike would be a great way of getting around town for short trips, if I actually manage to get healthy enough to make the most of it. I haven't ridden...
