@EriderM: I've ridden in winter, but never on an e-bike. I have apprehension about how the motor, bike weight, and speed will affect it. We shall see how brave I am this year.
@ebikes rock: Sounds like a great plan! Getting a cargo trailer really helped me use my bike more for shopping.
@Dominique Séguier: Can you go more places on your e-bike than you could on your motorcycle? Bike paths, etc? That's why I skipped over looking at motorcycles and scooters. Where I live, they are basically just cars. On my bike, I can travel all sorts of places you can't take a motorcycle or scooter.
@Cnugget: Usually when I go out, I'm just doing my normal shopping that I would have done in my car. So I don't see my self as spending more when I go out. But I do go for joyrides a lot more than I used to.
