I imagine there’s an eBike somewhere in my future. Not tomorrow or any time soon, but if I’m in a situation where it’s not feasible for me to ride unassisted then you can bet I’ll go electric.

I don’t understand the animosity so many around here seem so eager to express. If I need an assist to keep enjoying something I’ve loved for a lifetime, why not? Electric wheelchairs can go faster than some people can walk, so should we ban them from the sidewalks? The next time I’m walking down the street and I see someone in an electric wheelchair maybe I should call them out for cheating because they’re not working as hard as me. Nonsense!

If or when the time comes that I need or want an eBike, I’m gonna do it loud and proud. I’m gonna ride the damn wheels off of it in all the same ways I’ve ridden my whole life.

I wear glasses because they assist my vision.
If I need a hearing aid, I’ll get one.
If I need a cane or walker I’m gonna buy one with style.
If I need or want an electric wheelchair, I’m gonna get me a cool, fast, stylish one.
If I decide I’m ready for an eBike, well, you already know what I’m gonna do.
