Ok, you inspired me. Since I'm not training for a race or tour, I'm commuting every day with the e-bike (vs the pedal only bike).

Its way too much fun!!!

I switched over from my e-mtb to my e-road bike. 25 mph commute on a light weight road bike (24lbs + battery) is a blast. I'm liking the drop bar road bike better than the mountain bike - it is light, fast and nimble. With less rolling and wind resistance, my speeds are up about 10% and range is up 30% over the mountain bike.

Anyway, I'm loving the ebike commute (although cars do not expect to see a bicycle going faster than them on the streets I use).
