I am not fan of motorized assits on bicycles

I do not care for ebikes
and well... in my mind...
these weed whacker assist rigs are no better

there are a few messengers downtown ripping up and down the city streets creating all sorts of noise pollution

I do not care much for the noise or the fumes

let bicycles be bicycles
then step up to a scooter or a motorcycle if you do not want to pedal
