Not very inspiring.

Finally found Bob's Bikes in Poolesville, MD, (kind of far away), and Bob was most knowledgeable, let us test ride his OHM. We ordered them from him and it did take a few months, but he installed them for no extra charge.

I would be sad if this adversely affects Bob's Bikes, but I don't think the rest of the dealers in the area would notice.

Recently a couple of e bike stores have opened in the area, but they just sell those cheap Chinese bikes.
