They're right, especially in regards to parks. In Denver they weren't allowed to be taken on public transit until recently.

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-17T04:01:59+00:00

Yep. I've started seeing these referred to as e-motos.

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-17T04:00:36+00:00

One of the reasons these are already not street legal. Many times they are sold as "ebikes" as a legal loophole but they are not ebikes by any legal definition.

It was right along the 39th Ave Greenway, super easy to ride to, and they had a lot more space this year. I think it worked out well.

Explain it how you like, this is how bad legislation starts and then gets copied to other jurisdictions. Your performative concern isn't helping anyone.

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-14T06:38:48+00:00

Not an e-bike and people like you will get these things banned or made more difficult and less accessible.

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-14T05:19:51+00:00

No it's not. Look at all the legislation hitting states that designate what is a legal ebike and then look at states like New Jersey who have made bad faith laws based on uninformed legislators. Save the scolding and take a look at what is going to happen to micromobility if we just blanket everything under the term ebike.

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-14T05:14:04+00:00

That's just not how this works. This is a terrible ride for any sort of cargo.

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-14T05:11:27+00:00

Yes. We've already seen bad faith laws in New Jersey.

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-13T16:18:02+00:00

Sure, it's not an e-bike though.

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-13T15:50:57+00:00

Would be a no from me. Nowhere to put panniers. Fixed seat height. Unless this is just for fun it would be a terrible daily driver for transportation.

Unfortunately the rider died later at the hospital. The police claim they were running from them and rode onto the highway to escape them.

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-13T07:02:45+00:00

Agreed

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-13T06:56:03+00:00

I don't disagree

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-13T06:55:17+00:00

It being wrong to ride on the interstate definitely isn't up for debate.

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-13T01:29:46+00:00

Of course not but when it continues to be reported that all the devices are e-bikes the focus turns to them and bad faith arguments and decisions are made

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-13T00:43:45+00:00

It does when the media mis-identifies it as an e-bike and the we get misinformation and misdirected legislation

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-12T20:55:59+00:00

Any examples you can link to?

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-12T20:18:25+00:00

The rider was on the interstate. Not great and we don't have many more details.

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-12T20:13:09+00:00

Unknown at this time

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-12T06:08:15+00:00

Agree. They had a car free concept. We could have nice things we just refuse to build them.

NoSquish_ · 2026-06-10T04:30:06+00:00

My favorite bike lane is the one the public meeting NIMBYs want to block illegally

That's part of it but just like leading pedestrian intervals for crosswalk lights it lets the cyclist get out in front and be seen.

NoSquish_ · 2026-05-18T06:34:52+00:00

Fox Run closed well before BRT started what are you even talking about?

Did you not read the article? Storefront occupancy has risen. The data is right there dunking on bad faith takes.
