Addicted to e-bikes. Research Director at the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia. Hot takes are my own. My relationship status with NJ TRANSIT is "complicated".

This is what happens when unqualified people are allowed to fulfill something on an engineering checklist.
Do we let ignorant people design and install car parking? No. So we have to stop doing it with bike parking. Speak up, make friction for your leaders that allow this ridiculousness.
Can I go to the drive through with my bike?

In Philly we started seeing take-out places using e-bikes for delivery around 2015.
Apps lile Caviar started popping up around 2017-2018.
Red Dot public housing in Mahwah, NJ on the edge of Ramapo Mountains. The Mahwah Train Station is on the far right with I-287 and NJ Route 17 in between.
Mahwah NJ, put its public housing complex in a forest preserve on the opposite side of the I-287, 2 miles from the train station. Good hiking though.

"The House approved a resolution Thursday to condemn "anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, racism and other forms of bigotry" in a move that Democrats hope will quell the latest uproar over Rep. Ilhan Omar's criticism of Israel. The vote on the measure was 407-23. The 23 opposed were all Republican lawmakers. For the second time in as many months, the freshman Minnesota Democrat has provoked contentious debate on Capitol Hill over rhetoric that many lawmakers β including senior Democrats β view as anti-Semitic." https://www.npr.org/2019/03/07/701074291/house-votes-to-condemn-anti-semitism-after-rep-omars-comments#

Took the boy out for the Alex Pretti memorial ride. Had him ride my #TernGSD with the studded tires, and I rode my wife's #TernHSD, but turned out the streets were pretty clean. It was his first time pedaling himself for Bike Winter instead of being my passenger! We did about 15 miles in 22 degF.

Dear ICE/DHS/CBP you have no idea what level of compassion and love for our neighbors you have opened up in Minnesota!
3,000+ cyclists in 20Β° weather biked seven miles for a man we loved, a city we love, and ALL of our neighbors that we love.

Add in $150 a month for insurance, $100+ for fuel/fast charging, and $500 a year for maintenance.
You could buy a decent cargo e-bike ($1.5-5K) and 12 monthly transit passes ($1500?) if you lived in a livable community.
