    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I bit the bullet and bought a class 3 e-bike which I am using 2-3 days for my 32 mile RT to and from work.

It's an insane machine, and I love it.

Anyone else own an e-bike?
 
Yeah .... And it has given me my freedom back. I have a couple of aneurysms in my legs so I can only walk about a block before resting. But I can go a long way on my e-bike. Our laws are a little different than yours and anything over 500 watts is classed as a motorcycle requiring licensing and insurance . So here it's pretty much class 1 and 2 ..... What I originally wanted was a Gazelle and they are all class 1 but on the advice of my bike shop I went with a class 2 Envo ..... Shop was right it is exactly what I needed ...... Plenty of juice to make those Costco runs with full panniers up the hill home ......

I was pretty paranoid about theft so I sprung for an Abus Granite Supreme . It's takes four grinder wheels to get through it. In retrospect probably a bit overkill ...... Damn lock weighs a ton .....
