Show us pictures of where you ride your ebikes!

Ill show you a video first video on my channel but by no means the last as I have 3 ebikes currently 2021 e stream and 2021 copperhead both by Bulls and I just got what I wanted originally a 2021 trek rail 9.8xt so Ill be doing loads of vids for any interested and I explain how I came across ebikes in the video if anyones interested how an ebike is helping save my life.
 
Dave,
What's the black wrap at the base of the down tube? Does your bike have an "owie?"

There's a small space between the bottom of the battery and the frame where it mounts. I don't like the idea of dust/water/mud getting anywhere near the contacts.
So I got a 2 pack of neoprene velcro calf braces. Nice and stretchy, covers the gap and keeps the area clean. ;)
 
While this pic isnt up to the quality of all the pics here, it shows acceptance of ebikes where I live. One step at a time, This is the local city newletter

How do you like the Rail 9.8xt? I have been eyeballing that one lately.
 
another nice sunny day.... up early and out as i had to be back before 4pm (walking group meet)... a few mates did the butter tubs yesterday so not been that way in ages thought lets give it a go, went via Piecebridge- Aldbrough St john Richmond past the ranges where the army boys were blowing stuff up.
on to Redmire past Castle Bolton on to Askrigg then at the foot of the tubs had a banana and psyched myself for the climb.had no grief from tourist traffic on the way up ..though it was very light , but at the top when taking photo,s a few sports cars seemed to be using it as a race track :cursing: the ride down was brill.at the bottom as i had lots of battery left and plenty of time i decided to turn left and head up to Tan Hill... had coffee and toasted teacake at Thwaite. then headed of for the last climb of the day ,
it was much longer than i remembered lol longish but not steep (well once you get past the start) 25%.
the pub was very busy so just took a pic and was on my way, heading along the track to Bowes , the dropped in to Barnard castle out along the A67 as time was getting on. used my usual route back bolam up to Shildon then along the cycle path to home back by 3-35 and feeling a little weary :laugh: , just in time to shower and get read for a 6 mile walk ..been an excellent day sure beats working :D:D 89miles 6352ft

Amazing effort, you sure are blessed with amazing roads! 👍
 
just a nice easy ride today in the sunshine after Tuesdays epic,.. on my normal loop towards barny -winston -and back through Eppleby for coffee and scone then headed for Darlington as i needed to be over by the A167 for my other coffee stop at cozy coffee. realised when in Darlington that my better half was in the office today so called her and we had coffee and munches.(the joys of not working) . head out through the cycle paths to the top of north road and joined cycle path along side the A167 to Brafferton and my third coffee and cake at the Cozy coffee ,if my rides keep this up going to be a few pounds heavier :whistle: .back home via off road track over the A1m then through Aycliffe village.... 46 miles

I have the 21 Bulls Copperhead XTR all around bosch motor etc and the rail blows it away TOTALLY. I just wanted to upgrade to XTR on rail and add carbon wheels which im doing right now. rail 9.8XT is the s*it
Ahhhhh, I knew it! Luckily, I have looked all over and there isn't one around. Whew, dodged a bullet there hahaha I need another 8500 dollar ebike like I need another hole in my head 🤪
 
after 2 days working on garden seat(disassembled re-paint then reassemble).. thought it was time for a little jaunt, been a while since i had climbed over the Stang (Stang Forrest) so made my way via Piercebridge-Hutton Magna to cross the A66 at the Rokeby Inn-straight throgh to Barningham.. were a spotted a green phone box... on towards Scargill-Thwaite. turned left to start the long drag to the top (4miles) of steady climbing ...till you get to the hairpin bends appox 1 mile from the sumit it throws you a nice little 14% section.
once off the top it was to early for a beer at the C+B Hotel so decided to go up and over to Low row-Reeth and stop at the
dales cycle centre which has a great cafe .opted for the egg+bacon sarnie with a black coffee (must have been half a pig in it).. stuck to the main road on to Richmond as traffic was light (and well behaved)through Richmond then head left to Brompton-on-swale-Scorton-Middleton Tyas-Barton -Darlington out to the A167 cycle path Coatham Mundeville- heading for the Cozy coffee which was just closing as i arrived .
sso went down my off road track into Ayclffe village through industrial estate and called in to see mates i worked with . this not working lark i can get used too .a great day out again.... 77 miles..... 4,664ft

How often do they clear cut those trees and to what use are the logs put?
 
got the e-bikes back yesterday (both been full serviced) had a latish start so thought after the last few ride it was time for an easy run out so picked the old Darlington 50 miler route which is flattish, went the quiet road into darlo out to Croft-on-tees- Neasham over the river Tees-Girsby-Hornby-Appleton Wiske-Deighton-Brompton-Northhallerton.
the place was chocker, so just headed onwards. out via the B6271 past Romanby golf club to Yafforth- Danby Wiske-Streetlam-Pepper Arden to Atley hill left to Scorton-Moulton-Middleton Tyas-Barton straight back into Darlington . picked my usual way out cyclepath to north road ,then cycle path along the A167 headed to my fav coffee stop Cozy coffee at Brafferton . it was closed (got me days mixed up) still near home so all was good ... 70 miles of pure joy

starting to like this not working thing ...🤣🤣

just a short one today .. called in to see the boss as she is working from home and looking after her mum (Dementia) and sounded down last night. Aycliffe-Great Stainton-Redmarshall-over the A177 at Thorpe Thewles-Wolviston-Billingham.
retraced my route back to just before Thorpe Thewles and picked up the Wynyard cycle path al the way till it meets the A689 which has then part of the NCN1 route along side it all the way to Sedgefield, out past the racecourse back to Great Stainton through the industrial estate then home. then had to make a detour as i looked at e-bike controller and i was 2 mile short of 3000 miles so round the houses i did go 🤣🤣
