I feel like this would be epic if it were at ground level and integrated into an urban grid instead of a private retreat 10m above ground level.

I'm told "they" say that riding an ebike is cheating. So, I dunno... Maybe you should cheat? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is LA County. Decades of NIMBYism resulting in decades of studying the problem, raising billions, and then blocking the solution every single time because someone wants it somewhere else. NIMBYism is intolerance and hate, and we need to recognize it in our communities accordingly.

We actually do this here. Sidewalks and bike lanes have reflectors and brightly colored posts. Parking garages have bright yellow bollards. People still crash into them. The people publishing this stuff should not only not be allowed to dress themselves, they should be fired. It doesn't work.

Hah! I have defeated the Fitbit! I wore my watch to bed EVERY night in September!
I'm pretty sure my sleep totem is ghost because the algorithm is pretty sure I should have died.

Drivers ALL the way into the bike box and crosswalk with cops directly behind them suffering zero consequences, and people wonder why some ride on the sidewalks. 🙄

I have taken the best automated EVs available in Santa Monica. I have taken the best automated EVs available in Paris. The Paris EVs win hands down. It's not even close.
I try to imagine how amazing the US would be if we'd spent $100B on electrifying and automating trains instead. 🤯😵

Agreed on the principle of kinetic energy, but also, my top speed was achieved while the motor was off. Why apply that principle only to e-bikes?
Conversely, inattention is dangerous. Which is less likely to be on their phone? The person pedaling or the person flipping a throttle with their thumb?
