Bikes 🚲

I'm long electric cycling. 

Bikes are a technology, electric ones are better.

Tour De France and others would be 10x more interesting with electric bikes and constraints like only battery per race and a weight limit.

Tradeoffs and strategy become fascinating while improving the tech. Athletes still have to athlete.

What are my fellow cyclist thinking of this idea?

Initial reaction: Nope
On further reflection: Might be interesting to see the strategies cyclists adopt? ie whether to save it for short bursts of extra power, OR to ‘slow drip’ over a longer distance. Tortoise vs. hare?

For me it’s a no-go.
We should keep cycling as it is.

Yeah, I do agree.
(Although generally speaking, wanting to keep anything exactly ‘as it is’ is a really alien concept to me!)

Agreed.
But sometimes it makes sense to stick to tradition.
