ive noticed when i see some on else on a electric bike we smile at each other with a hint of "we know some thing they dont know" in our smile.
this never happend on pushbikes.
i thought i had seen a thread asking what other electric bikes we see in our area but i cant find it so i will put mine here.
place/ grimsby lincolnshire
2x powerbyke euros
2x giant (dont know which models)
1x izip
2x powabyke shoppers
1x sakura cruiser (not my wifes)
1x sakura shopper
thats not bad for a back water like grimsby and there must be some i have not seen.

I think that's probably the record Mike, 9 bikes, that's amazing. In my hilly area I've only ever seen one other on the road, another Twist, though I know dealers have sold several Lafree and Powabyke models in the area over the last four years. It must be the steeper hills putting them off riding them! :(

Here's the original link if you want to compare, Mike:

"How any electric bikes do you see on the roads?"

3, possibly 4, was the most reported in that thread, so you're definitely the record holder at the moment.

Grimsby must be the capital of electric biking, perhaps the Presteigne event should be moved there?
