Seriously. I'm so sick of these and mopeds. These are the two groups of people that make cyclists look like assholes. A device that allows you to go 30 MPH with no effort is not a bicycle. It's a motor vehicle and ought to be treated as such. Most people can't even sustain 20 MPH for an extended period on a bike, yet e-bikes bring the bar for idiots down significantly.

Oh hell no, cyclists were assholes way before these battery powered bikes.

Is it really the waiting issue or gig workers desire to be able to pick up more deliveries so they can make more money?

Could just pay them more per delivery.

This is just socializing the cost of delivery so the company can make slightly more profit.

Let’s not pretend it’s anything else.
