A little update on my ebiking. Since I've had the two batteries I've taken a lot of trips on the Veloteq that I previously would have taken the TTC or GO transit for. Recent trips include to Bloor and Islington, Yonge and Steeles and Ellesmere and Kennedy. For those unfamiliar with Toronto, the round trip distances were in the 20-30 km zone.
My youngest sister lives in Oakville. Mapquest is telling me that the distance to her is 38.7 km. So the next time that I go to visit her for supper I'll take both chargers to recharge the batteries during the visit.
Right now my range estimate in city traffic is that my original battery is giving me 20 km and the new one 25 km. So my sister is about as far as I would ever want to go.
