My name is Ronnie. I am a first time e-bike POTENTIAL buyer. I am recently disabled, spinal stenosis, weak legs, weak knees, nerve damage in both legs. I was forced to convert from a traditional touring bike (had a Cannondale Touring 2 bike and was injured on a training ride in preparation for a cross country bike tour). BUT I'm stubborn and found a way (I think) to make my dream come true. I have recently discovered the Pedego Stretch. Lots of space for my gear and a heavy load cap since I have gained lots of weight since my injury. It will also allow me to carry extra batteries to accomplish 80 to 100 miles per day and my 55 pound Triaxe foldable mobility scooter (of course the mobility scooter is for off-the-bike days). First of all... any ideas or input about a cross country e-bike tour? Second... Anyone want to join me for a summer 2019 departure? Thanks for your input! Ronnie, Corpus Christi, Tx.

Great idea.
What route are you thinking of?
There are many touring E-bikes... depends on your riding preference like (Upright, sporty etc) geometry, load capacity, budget etc.
Not sure yet. My big plan, when it was still a cycling tour and since I'm also a HUGE Disney Word fan, LOL, was to start in Melbourne Florida, ride to Disney Orlando, stay a few days there, then ride up towards NY and see the lights, then hang a mean left and head somewhere towards the west coast. But at this point, I'll be happy just getting out of Corpus. LOL.
