I agree, I'll keep my bikes human powered. E-bikes are just another way for people to be lazy asses. What makes bicycles awesome is their simplicity - they take you places and give you a great workout as well. Powering them ruins the entire concept, imo.

And as far as people saying things like 'at least e-bikes bring more people into cycling' I agree, the same way you can justify people at gyms that do virtually nothing 'but at least they're at the gym'..
