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. Here’s why.
I’m a biking advocate. I’ve been using a bike as my primary mode of transportation for a decade. But even more than being a biking advocate, I’m an ebike advocate. And pound for pound, I think the best investment I’ve ever made is my ebike. For many of you reading this, I’m convinced that an ebike can be the best investment you ever make too. Here’s why.

I bike to work five days a week, and every once in a while, I like to reflect on how fortunate I am to be able to do that. It’s a wonderful situation that I find myself in. I live close enough to my office that biking to work isn’t a particularly difficult thing for … Read more
Here’s an interesting fact about me: I’m 33 years old and I’ve never bought a car in my life. That’s sort of a strange thing for someone my age. Depending on how old you are, you’ve likely bought multiple cars over the years – the stats say that your average person buys a new car … Read more
