This does not meet the definition of electric bicycle in most US states under the three class law. Class 2 which allows a throttle must have operable pedals.

.@limebike is piloting what they call a "pedal-less electric bicycle", see picture. I'm not sure if it's an e-scooter with a seat, or an electric moped. But I do know that most people wouldn't call it a "bicycle" as it isn't active mobility.

E-bikes are a game changer. On e-bikes, people ride more often and their trips cover a longer distance. Altogether the e-bike makes cycling an even more appealing mode of transport than it already was. ⚡️🚴💪🌿iamexpat.nl/lifestyle/life…


Hey APBL @bicyclelobby is the Rabinowitz video on line anywhere?

These Active Transportation corrals are great. 1) Traffic calming (narrowing lanes) 2) bike & scooter storage that doesn't take away sidewalk space 3) Daylighting tool (put near intersections to prevent cars parking) We should install a few in East Nashville.

Cycling infrastructure should be consistent and safe. Part-time lanes create confusion and put cyclists and drivers at risk. Full-time, segregated lanes encourage more people to ride. For kids to cycle safely, they need routes free from cars and buses. 🙏

Remember, Paris wasn’t “always this way.” It wasn’t even this way in late 2019 when I was last there. Just a few years ago, #Paris was choking in car traffic much more. This is new. This is leadership. Cities are a result of choices. HT @Khayat_Fouad

More car lanes draw out more car drivers, which then fills up the car lanes. More bike lanes draw out more bike riders, which then fills up the bike lanes. Induced demand isn't inherently good or bad, it just is.

Another day, another truck parked in the bike lane on Riverside. 2 other cyclists had to stop and go around in the 2 minutes it took to get these photos. Protected bike lanes when? cc: @emilyfor7 @freddieoconnell @Oliviahill247 #ChooseHowYouMove

One of the many advantages of going to school by bike: you can stop on the bridge to look for boats.

To all the bike lane haters: Bike lanes actually reduce congestion. Sorry, but the facts don’t care about your feelings. cbc.ca/news/science/b…

Same tie today. Suit is a fine layer in cooler temperatures, but you’ll need a jacket to cut the wind. Best part is time outside with the kids on the way to school and looking forward to a warm sunny commute home How are y’all keeping the kids warm on the way to school?

Longtail ebike through a park in a suit on a beautiful afternoon gets a lot of attention.

So astonishingly reprehensible. Predictable human sacrifice.

I get so tired of people arguing that they should be allowed to kill people because they don't want to pay attention.

Resources for information on pedestrian safety: feel free to add to thread 🧵 below 👇 TN state laws. Jaywalking is not illegal. Even if a pedestrian is outside a crosswalk drivers must exercise due caution.⛔️ #Nashville #VisionZero tn.gov/tdot/multimoda…
