California: AB-1096 to classify an "electric bicycle"

[zener]

Perhaps we should have our own ES stickers that rate in more useful units, such as watts per spoke.

I kinda like more 1 Horse Power. But the real one... 8)

Here"s our new e-bike law, through google-translator.
1. But pedestrians supporting or replacing mobility equipment

Hey! Non-Sami Guy? [Jealousy Mode ON] This is for folks in Finland (not California), correct?

[Jealousy Mode OFF]

Gawds... Here in Canada we only get 500 watts (continuous, with no mention re "peaks". Hehe) Sorta "Pony-Powered. (Sigh)

Now don"t be jealous you southerner! Today i tried to take a photograph at noon but there was not enough light. Needed all flashlights i got to do it. it"s been basically raining three months clouds hanging at 100 feet. Complete darkness comes at 3pm. God this is insane place to live for a humankind. You can leave your curtains shut 24/7, there"s nothing to see.
Non-Sami Oh yeah. Samis are only tiny minority like native americans. Great people though, we love their reindeer meat, it costs 98 euros per kilo and we buy all they can sell.
As far as e-bikes go...yes!!! It got passed! Lycras are pissed as hell 1000 watts is the limit now. Which means i am underpowered! Very important law change, makes atmosphere much more peaceful on the road. I think we will get rid of that laughable 25 km/h soon too. WE HAVE NOW THE HIGHEST POWERLIMIT IN EUROPE. God i love this country sometimes, though the climate is awful. Take care.
