Three things:
1) When I used to be a high school teacher I let the kids bring in their playstation on the last class of year to play Guitar Hero (it was a new game their "old teacher" had never heard of). We played it on the projector and cranked the volume. It was a blast. But then I watched the two who brought it in do the Freebird guitar solo on the highest level. I realized two things at this point. a) they had spent enough time playing this game that if they had picked up real guitars instead of the stupid plastic toys they would have become actual guitar hero's. b) They lacked the ability to stick with a hard task like learning a real instrument. The game allows them to always be a star. When you start you are a guitar hero in the easy setting and as you get better you continue to be a hero at harder levels. No one ever has to suffer sucking.
2) If you need an E-moped to ride as good as me, I get it. I would want to ride like me too. Take the Guitar Hero approach to being a great rider - I'm sure that ethic will get you far in life. (Please read this somewhat tongue in cheek)
3) I'm sure lots of the guys in bike videos will like E-mopeds. They make all kinds of decisions I wouldn't (just watch one of their videos). Most of those riders are motivated by something very different than me and I definitely don't follow their lead when it comes to figuring out how I should ride.
