#ebikesummer
My ebike is in garage-jail this week as I can't access my garage due to parking lot resealing. I'm not leaving it out and don't want to deal with 3 flights of stairs as alternatives. I only got it in April, but I'm basically going crazy knowing I'm stuck with my car instead. #ebikesummer

#eBikeSummer is real. And not only in cities that offer e-bike rebates. This is the nationwide search trend over the past 5 years.

"Daniel Eisner is one of the people who received an e-bike rebate this summer. He told the Mercury that since he got his electric cargo bike earlier this summer, he’s barely used his car."
E-Bike Town - Portland Mercury
Earlier this summer, Sabrina Taylor picked up her new electric bike, purchased with a rebate through the Portland Clean Energy Community Benefits Fund’s (PCEF) new e-bike incentive program. Not long a...

Nice ride from St Paul on Gateway Trail until about a mile from Stillwater, a big tree had fallen recently blocking the path. Tons of folks carrying their bikes over but we decided the Universe was telling us to head back. #ebikesummer

I’m thinking about getting an e-bike. … #EbikeSummer

Some #carryshitolympics from yesterday as I loaded out of the Powderhorn Art Fair. Pulling an industrial embroidery machine, stock, tent, and display stuff on a 5' long Bikes at Work trailer, about 400lbs. Felt like the smuggest bitch biking by dozens of cars lined up and idling waiting to load out

I gotta say:

Hot summer morning bike ride to the Farmer's Market & coming home to a plate of cucumber sandwiches & a strawberry THC drink is an A+ experience

Idyllic Sunday morning ride aside from the smoky haze & AQI.

Lovely, diverse, intergenerational market crowd; spent at a few Asian-owned farm stands; iced coffee from the Guatemalan family who both farms & roasts; ran into 2 friends at the co-op & waved to 2 neighbors on the ride home.

N95ed for #eBikeSummer to Kingfield Farmer's Market this AM since we needed a few things, & I've been cooped up, & my bike has been out of commission.
(🙏🏻 Venture Bikes!)

Shout-out to the pal in a Gritty 4 Seasons Total Landscaping shirt.

Gorgeous flowers, & ran into 2 friends at the co-op!

We're also staggering bike maintenance so that she's still got her personal cargo ebike (an Aventon Abound) while mine is in the shop.

We're car free, & I've got dynamic disability limitations, so it's important that we have at least 1 bike in addition to @metrotransitmn.bsky.social

Twin Cities, you may have heard it's #eBikeSummer !

Well @phoenix-rights.bsky.social & I saw this last minute opportunity for a @bunchbike.com & realized we could do the coolest thing!

So Ash put my folding ebike in the @mcbl.bike cargo ebike & took it to the bike shop!

E-bike-ception?!

First love rendez-vous on @bunchbike.com. It was so fun.
We enjoy riding in rounds with unknow kids in a school parking.

Husband rides a bike first time since 23 years and enjoys not falling.

Me shaking my head because the ONE SINGLE protected bike lane just ends abruptly at a violently busy thoroughfare - and "continues" the wrong way into a one-way street... or something? The bike lane just laughs at us

Intercepted mama on her ride home, then did 7 more miles. "We're training like Tadej, papa!" she said before dismounting to walk up a big hill.

My family was at dinner tonight and my wife pointed out some cargo bike dads arriving across the street.

They didn’t have kids or cargo in their bikes - just some friends riding cargo bikes together to dinner.

We love to see it.

One underrated benefit of #ebikesummer in Minneapolis is skipping the Aldi-parking-lot chaos.

#Ebikes are car replacers!! I’ve ridden 1000+ miles locally in two years of having an e-bike!

We actually sold a car because we used it so rarely.

PLUS - and this is a BIG plus

#Ebikes = JOY! 💙🚲💙
E-bikes, scooters, and mopeds are reducing more demand for oil than electric vehicles!

Always wear a helmet and don’t forget to pressure your local government for protected bike lanes!

Way to prove that it really is #EbikeSummer ☀️, PDX! 💙🚲💙
Dispatches from the big ebike event in Portland - the range of ages, abilities, and bike styles really emphasizes the transformative power of e-bikes. I saw someone biking in with a cane in her basket. Don’t let anybody tell you this isn’t a viable path to sustainable transportation.

People buy #Ebikes as a JOYFUL car replacer.

#EbikeSummer ☀️
People do not buy ebikes because they are happy to spend thousands more than they would on a regular bike.

People buy ebikes because they save thousands compared to the car journeys they replace.

That is the key distinction that many policy makers the general public miss or don’t understand.

One week into e-bike dad summer I’ve only driven my car once, when I had to go to Edina
We're in the midst of a transportation revolution.
