Yyyy Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 This e bike does belong on the mountain! https://www.pinkbike.com/news/disabled-rider-calls-for-empathy-and-kindness-after-being-challenged-on-trails.html Agreed. i wonder if that couple would have been so brave to call out a group of able bodied ebike riders.... easy to be "sterk bek" when you are the one if a stronger position.
ChrisF Posted September 23, 2020 Posted September 23, 2020 They belong anywhereWELCOME to the Hub. And no, only real bikers on real rigid bikes belong on the mountains .... Back in the real world .... the number of ebikes on the trails are increasing FAST .... aquaratza and Patchelicious 2

aquaratza Posted September 23, 2020 Posted September 23, 2020 (edited) haha , I was in Australia a while back and I was riding a fairly steep trail through a forest. I landed up buckling my rear wheel on the downhill portion (dual suspension bike), so yeah, it was rof. A guy on a gravel bike overtook me when I stopped at the highest point. No idea what happened to him. I would have paid to see that downhill run . Saw a gravel bike during 2019's TransBaviaans too... Edited September 23, 2020 by aquaratza

Headshot Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 Got nothing against wimps and disabled people riding eBikes anywhere. :-)
ChrisF Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 Isnt an eBike a shortcut to experience?Nooooooo.... It is a CHAIRLIFT .... followed by a breakneck decent ... this could mean either "fast" or actually "breaking" body parts ...
Hairy Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 Had a guy come up behind me this morning at conters.... All you hear is the tyres crunching louder and louder... When he came past me I was surprised and told him so too... Thought he was on a motor bike aka e bike
