A few years ago, I bought my first ebike and it completely changed the way I thought about bikes and their use as a primary mode of transportation. I’ve been using the RadCity as my primary ebike for the past few years, but recently got my hands on the Himiway Escape. It’s served as one of my modes of transportation and I’ve also been using it as a food delivery vehicle for when I do deliveries with apps like DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub. In this Himiway Escape bike review, I’m going to go over my experience with this bike and my thoughts on it.

Looking Back At My Basic 10-Year Plan (5 Years Later)
About five years ago, when I was in a very different place and just starting on my money journey, I wrote a post about what my money plans were for the next 10 years.

After all, life is too fluid and unpredictable to really know what the future will hold.
First Time Home Buyer Book Review – A Must Read For New Home Buyers
At the beginning of this year, my wife and I officially hit the housing market. We’ve had our current house for 10 years and with a growing family and a bigger income, we thought it was finally time to allow ourselves to upgrade our lifestyle. The home buying process isn’t something I’m very familiar with, however, so I went out looking for guidance. As luck would have it, I found a book that recently came out that was perfect for me.

You Probably Have No Idea What You Want
A little over a year ago, my wife and I went to an open house for a fancy, big house. It was in a good neighborhood, close to my wife’s family, and ideally situated for both of our commutes. The house was amazing. Fully renovated. A large lot. Gorgeous finishes. Great curb appeal. It even had a mother-in-law living area that could be separated from the rest of the house and probably used as the occasional Airbnb space.

The Best Thing I’ve Ever Bought Is An Ebike
When I think about life-changing things I’ve bought over the years, the list is pretty small. A laptop. My first smartphone. The robot vacuum that’s saved me literally hundreds of hours of cleaning time. But perhaps the best thing I’ve ever bought has to be an ebike.
