DieselnDust Posted August 21, 2018 Share Ah so pretty much status quo. Fear of physics maths and the unknown. You know in the 1990's my parents feared computers would make them obsolete and they both retired from their jobs Edited August 21, 2018 by DieselnDust GLuvsMtb and L.T.G 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have yet to find a poker player that would not prefer having four extra aces up his sleeve at any one time. Obviously his fellow card players would not be so happy about it.......

DieselnDust Posted August 21, 2018 Share Motor versus legs = cheating. I thought we had solved this? Ebike on trails no worries - ebikes in races is cheating.... For races the UCI / CSA / OC pretty much la down the law here so ain;t no body gonna be getting provincial or national colours riding an e-bike. Fun rides on the other hand....Long route? Severely challenged for range unless you modify the bike with bigger batteriesShort routes.....Who really cares? These are family events anyways. Let em ride!! Does the e-bike campaign have a flag or something official for use during protests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let em ride!! Does the e-bike campaign have a flag or something official for use during protests? Most of the "short races" are CSA sanctioned too so no e-bikes. That said - egos are funny things. Regardless of short/long/hard/easy I'd be a bit miff if someone with a motor beat me in a race. Fitness levels vary dramatically in riding and everybody is trying to beat someone/something. Ebikes remove the human aspect from what is a very human oriented sport. I am STILL baffled that (medical reasons aside) someone would want to use their ebike in a short race. Most of the short races are easily doable using your own legs - they're the starting point for people wanting to get fitter and stronger. Hell - most races have 3 distances - if you can't make the shortest distance then maybe bicycle racing is not for you. Damnit.
