If they gave half a crap about people with mobility issues, they would build
more green easy access trails and adapted needs parking at the trail heads.
This is an absolutely garbage argument, and the money-grubbing ebike sell outs
are trying to hide behind a few people with medical problems to push their
motors down our throats. Any person that can handle a hard-access black or
blue trail, can easily pedal closer and easier stuff. At what point do we
simply build an escalator to the trail head? There might be a small number of
people with special medical situations that can and want to tackle the gnarl
in the outback. If that is a legitimate problem, then they should be able to
secure medical professional approval to ride their motorized device as needed,
no different than letting certified assistance dogs on transit = not just any
hack with a pitbull - you catch my drift? This idea of ebikes to free the
differently abled is offensive to people with actual disabilities who don't
even have an accessible green space they can enjoy.
