Ideally this can make e-bikes more accessible and cut off the idea that biking is just for rich hipsters.
And to people saying they should spend this money building out biking infrastructure - they are already trying to build 10 miles of bike lanes per year. if anything, this creates more advocates to speed those processes up.

Hopefully locks can be included in the program!

Not if the bike lanes are protected (which I think the article is pushing for)

Yes but I don’t think most people see e-bikes as car replacements. Ideally that changes with a real bike network and better chances of not dying while biking though
