mams99 Posted: I'm not being snarky in the least, but just geniunely curious, if you used your muscle power 100% to go up hills but you had an electric bike, why did you have the electric bike? And I can't tell from your bike list, but which was the electric assist one? Wouldn't a dynamo hub and carrying some battery chargers for the phone be lighter?
Hmmm... another thing I hadn't thought of - rain.
I looked at Tourist in MSNs post and can't find any mention of an ebike.
