EBike intro from “Rails to Trails”

E-Bikes Got This Baby Boomer Back on the Trail After Asthma

A one-day rental there led to a weeklong adventure in Hawaii, followed by my first of two e-bike purchases three years ago. Since then, I’ve logged more than 1,000 road and trail miles, and for me, it’s been a win-win.

Hello Mulezen, happy that it got you going again. It also helped me after a bout with cancer last year. Now, with this virus, I’m reading and seeing that more people are turning to ebikes, especially the matures like myself. This semi lockdown has affected everyone, and biking has been able to take our minds off the negatives.

Great article for this rapidly emerging activity. The stories for folks in our age range are similar, across the board.

Gypsy Treker, it’s a new phenonoma. People of mid to matures are interested in getting back into biking. Some have giving up because of their age or physical condition, but they remember their youth. This is a chance to get back into it, and psychologically it reverses their age limitations.
