Hello me hearties! Being a Bristol resident, it's impossible to avoid the 'Get on yer bike' vibe going around the city - especially with the loss of two local bus routes in my neck of the woods. I'm no spring chicken and haven't ridden anything other than a bus for years - never learned to drive, but did ride a moped until the rules changed and I couldn't use it on my Provisional Licence. But that's ancient history (rather like me!) - I'm now seriously considering buying an e-trike to get me and my shopping around this monstrously hilly city. I'm liking the idea of the Batribike Trike 20, which has an articulated frame to provide a more natural feel to the steering. However, I know nothing about e-bikes or the practicalities of riding/owning a trike, so am hoping the good people of the tricycling fraternity will be willing to share the wisdom borne of experience - bitter or otherwise! Indeed, I would welcome any and all advice - plus a modicum of encouragement to help me over the scariest bit: visiting the bike shop.
