Riding home from a night out, especially on a full moon 🌕, continues to be one of my top 10 things. It’s so quiet, the natural smells come back after being disguised by auto fumes all day and you can take your time meandering. I feel like a city shows you who it is at night and Portland is lovely with the neighborhood greenways with dense old growth tree 🌳 canopies. #nightriding #bikinghome #bikeride #morrisonbridge #portland #bikaboutportland #gazellebikes @gazellebikes

Electric cargo bikes are social lubricants for #seniors. This is Joan with her husband and grandson. She is 74 and not comfortable riding a bike, so I ran home and grabbed the #urbanarrow so she could hop in and enjoy my bike tour with her family.

Poor bikes have no idea what’s coming...SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY. We’re tearing the roof off the stadium and filling it with mud, Mud, MUD! There are 2 non-muddy stretches of the C&O: Paw Paw tunnel and the Western Maryland Rail Trail. This is why all the lodging along the trail have hoses 🚿 readily available and some even have brushes. We had to do a DEEP clean of the @pedego and all the electric connections at the end. #candotowpath . . . Tag @bikabout or #EbikesareCheating on socials and we’ll share your cheating 🤫 story.

What ever happened to the @bionxint electric ⚡️ bike system? It was my favorite because it was a competition with yourself to finish the day with net zero charge. On downhills, you charged the battery by using a (-) setting - pure crack. Also, do as I say, not as I do. Navigating while biking is not the easiest of tasks and this was a neighborhood street. . . . Tag @bikabout or #EbikesareCheating on socials and we’ll share your cheating 🤫 story.

The Great Allegheny Passage Trail has a high point at 2500 feet, which we purposefully approached from the gradual side or Pittsburgh to DC direction. There is no way in hell that our family would have had nearly the great time we did without the pedal assist of this #ebike set up of a @pedego and @burleydesign piccolo trailer bike. This is the magic ticket combo that opens up long distance bike touring for young families. No more fighting, frustration or physical taxation over the lack of your child pedaling. Everyone just has a stellar time and kiddo gets to help when they want. Thanks again to @pedegoboston for loaning it to us and converting us into customers! We ❤️ this set and get so much use out of it. . . . Tag @bikabout or #EbikesareCheating on socials and we’ll share your cheating 🤫 story.

When will #ebike charging stations be a thing? Tesla and EVs have beautiful charging stations that are thoughtfully placed within X miles to combat range anxiety. Meanwhile, the best way to charge when you are on a long distance ride is to combine bike+body fueling, finding a discreet outlet in restaurants or breweries and taking an hour or two for lunch🌮. When you’re desperate, you can pretty much find a standard outlet on the outside of most commercial buildings. One day, it would be awesome if bike racks incorporated solar charging stations! #ebikechargingstation . . . Tag @bikabout or #EbikesareCheating on socials and we’ll share your cheating 🤫 story.

Bike camping ⛺️ comes in 3 distinct styles. On one end of the spectrum, you have the #bikepacker, a minimalist mountain bike set up that mirrors backpacking, hence the name. In the middle are the #biketouring folks, also minimalist, but geared towards road riding. And there are the black sheep that we’ll call #bikecamping. This is more like #carcamping by 🚲. You don’t *have* to have all the shit, but things like an air mattress are great luxuries if you can bring them. Add kids to the mix, and your set up gets more complicated. If you live flat terrain, this is doable on your own power, but with hills and the proliferation of #ebikes ⚡️, suddenly bike camping is a whole lot easier. We use our @pedego - @burleydesign piccolo - trailer train to carry our tent, bags, pads, food, the small stuff and 🧒. We pick a spot close to home or transit and ride the final 5-30 miles to a camping spot. So when people say “Ebikes are cheating”, I laugh. What is driving then? It takes a decent amount of planning and calories to make this happen versus throwing stuff in a car or RV. It is with this photo that we kick off our EBIKES ARE CHEATING series, showcasing imagery that embraces the accusation with yes, we are cheating at life.

1 ☝️ more plug for Oakland with the perfect pivot photo for our next series on ⚡️🚲 #ebikesarecheating. If we were to plan 📝 the best visit to the East Bay, here is what we’d do: 1) stay in the neighborhoods around Lake Merritt or Temescal, 2) get an ebike rental from @spinlistr or New Wheel Bikes in SF, 3) ride the Wiggle, Golden Gate Park and Bridge, 4) taste your way through the Ferry Building, 5) Ride the ferry ⛴ with your bike between SF-Oakland-Alameda, 6) ride the SF Bay and Bay Bridge Trails, 7) push yourself to ride up to Tilden Park (again, #ebike), and eat, drink and see the places on our top 5 list attached. It may be the geographic, waterway or cultural attributes, but the East Bay is the Brooklyn to SF’s Manhattan. Full of real people, grittiness, art and parks. Oakland knows it has some work to do on bike infrastructure and equity, but with the “Let’s Bike Oakland” plan announced last month, they are well on their way and it will only get nicer to ride.

21 years ago, I enjoyed one of my first drinks as a 21 year old. I was the eldest of my friends and ventured out by myself to the Manhattan, Athens’ best townie bar. I was sitting at the bar and reading (what else would I do in 1998?) and the bartender says, “hi, Mike.” Someone sat next to me and feeling a presence, I turned to my right and it was Mr. Stipe. I immediately blushed, paid as fast as I could, and got the hell out of there. It was too intense to be the only one at the bar with him. Looking back, I wish I would have said hello and told him he made beautiful music 🎶. This #tbt is poignant because Peter Buck graced small town Hood River with his presence last night and the memories of Athens came flooding back. This photo was taken 5 years ago during our pilot tour of 7 cities in 2 months, getting content for the launch of the website. That town is a gem and we love ❤️ returning every chance we get. #athensga #rem #bikaboutathens #brompton #towniebar #manhattancafe

The actual 🚂 station name is Oakland-Jack London Square / C.L.

Time for some family bike rides. Did you know one of our favorite bike hacks is an #ebike with a #kidstrailerbike? Mom or Dad pedals effortlessly while kiddo pedals when they want while still feeling apart of the action. This is the @pedego + #burleypiccolo but we’ve also seen a @radpowerbikes + piccolo. #familybikeride . . . Use #EbikesareCheating or tag @Bikabout on socials and we’ll share your cheating 🤫 story.

It was my favorite because it was a competition with yourself to finish the day with net zero charge. On downhills, you charged the battery by using a (-) setting - pure crack. Also, do as I say, not as I do. Navigating while biking is not the easiest of tasks and this was a neighborhood street. . . .

Made a run to the local hardware store, @hrsupply, and used 🍦 to seduce the girls to go with me. #quaxing #shoplocal #bikabouthoodriver #girlsbikeride #indiancreektrail The Great Allegheny Passage Trail has a high point at 2500 feet, which we purposefully approached from the gradual side or Pittsburgh to DC direction. There is no way in hell that our family would have had nearly the great time we did without the pedal assist of this #ebike set up of a @pedego and @burleydesign piccolo trailer bike. This is the magic ticket combo that opens up long distance bike touring for young families. No more fighting, frustration or physical taxation over the lack of your child pedaling. Everyone just has a stellar time and kiddo gets to help when they want. Thanks again to @pedegoboston for loaning it to us and converting us into customers! We ❤️ this set and get so much use out of it. . . . Tag @bikabout or #EbikesareCheating on socials and we’ll share your cheating 🤫 story.

Tesla and EVs have beautiful charging stations that are thoughtfully placed within X miles to combat range anxiety. Meanwhile, the best way to charge when you are on a long distance ride is to combine bike+body fueling, finding a discreet outlet in restaurants or breweries and taking an hour or two for lunch🌮. When you’re desperate, you can pretty much find a standard outlet on the outside of most commercial buildings. One day, it would be awesome if bike racks incorporated solar charging stations! #ebikechargingstation . . . Tag @bikabout or #EbikesareCheating on socials and we’ll share your cheating 🤫 story.

On one end of the spectrum, you have the #bikepacker, a minimalist mountain bike set up that mirrors backpacking, hence the name. In the middle are the #biketouring folks, also minimalist, but geared towards road riding. And there are the black sheep that we’ll call #bikecamping. This is more like #carcamping by 🚲. You don’t *have* to have all the shit, but things like an air mattress are great luxuries if you can bring them. Add kids to the mix, and your set up gets more complicated. If you live flat terrain, this is doable on your own power, but with hills and the proliferation of #ebikes ⚡️, suddenly bike camping is a whole lot easier. We use our @pedego - @burleydesign piccolo - trailer train to carry our tent, bags, pads, food, the small stuff and 🧒. We pick a spot close to home or transit and ride the final 5-30 miles to a camping spot. So when people say “Ebikes are cheating”, I laugh. What is driving then? It takes a decent amount of planning and calories to make this happen versus throwing stuff in a car or RV. It is with this photo that we kick off our EBIKES ARE CHEATING series, showcasing imagery that embraces the accusation with yes, we are cheating at life.

If we were to plan 📝 the best visit to the East Bay, here is what we’d do: 1) stay in the neighborhoods around Lake Merritt or Temescal, 2) get an ebike rental from @spinlistr or New Wheel Bikes in SF, 3) ride the Wiggle, Golden Gate Park and Bridge, 4) taste your way through the Ferry Building, 5) Ride the ferry ⛴ with your bike between SF-Oakland-Alameda, 6) ride the SF Bay and Bay Bridge Trails, 7) push yourself to ride up to Tilden Park (again, #ebike), and eat, drink and see the places on our top 5 list attached. It may be the geographic, waterway or cultural attributes, but the East Bay is the Brooklyn to SF’s Manhattan. Full of real people, grittiness, art and parks. Oakland knows it has some work to do on bike infrastructure and equity, but with the “Let’s Bike Oakland” plan announced last month, they are well on their way and it will only get nicer to ride.

What the other side of the lens 📷 looks like. This was taken in a part of Oakland that has so much potential to be a viable and great bikeway, if they just invested in the 7th and I-880 interchange. #oakland #bikaboutoakland @visitoakland . . .

I was the eldest of my friends and ventured out by myself to the Manhattan, Athens’ best townie bar. I was sitting at the bar and reading (what else would I do in 1998?) and the bartender says, “hi, Mike.” Someone sat next to me and feeling a presence, I turned to my right and it was Mr. Stipe. I immediately blushed, paid as fast as I could, and got the hell out of there. It was too intense to be the only one at the bar with him. Looking back, I wish I would have said hello and told him he made beautiful music 🎶. This #tbt is poignant because Peter Buck graced small town Hood River with his presence last night and the memories of Athens came flooding back. This photo was taken 5 years ago during our pilot tour of 7 cities in 2 months, getting content for the launch of the website. That town is a gem and we love ❤️ returning every chance we get. #athensga #rem #bikaboutathens #brompton #towniebar #manhattancafe The actual 🚂 station name is Oakland-Jack London Square / C.L. Dellums Station, named after “a longtime Oakland resident and the co-founder of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters...Founded in 1925, The (BSCP) was the first labor organization led by African Americans to receive a charter in the American Federation of Labor. The BSCP gathered a membership of 18,000 passenger railway workers across Canada, Mexico, and the United States,” @wikipedia. We so much preferred arriving in downtown Oakland by train to flying into San Fran airport. We unloaded our normal bikes from baggage and rode 10 minutes to our friend’s house. Thank you 🙏, Dellums, for all your work. #blackhistory #bikaboutoakland @visitoakland . . . Wander by 🚲 in Oakland with our newest travel guide linked on our Instagram profile or Bikabout.com/oakland
