Ari Bikes Introduces Wire Peak 3.0 eMTB
@jpb1227: all the time in Squamish. I ride an 'SL' E-bike, and people blast by as if I am parked.

$190k Prize Pool & New Financial Model for MTB Events: 'Beyond Gravity' Launching in Tasmania
One of the issues is having to pay to watch a season of racing, but in reality only realistically being able to watch 3 races due to time zones. I don't know what time the race would would need to take place in Tazmania in order to reach the 'awake time' for as many people as possible globally? Late afternoon / evening Tazmania time would work for BC Canada / west coast USA but I don't know about Europe until I've had my first cup of tea this morning....

First Look: Actofive's Convertible E-Bike & Enduro Bike Concept
7075-T6 is very high strength (for aluminum) but classed as 'unweldable'. It's probably just not feasible to weld this type of frame with 6061 or other traditional aluminum alloys.

Video: Braydon Bringhurst Attempts to Climb Squamish's Most Famous Slab Trail
@loam2home: probably pretty similar around here these days in terms of % of bikes out there. Some have both bikes, and use their E-bike as trail building transportation.
There's one demographic that is definitely the laziest, but I'd burn in Hell if I dared mentioning them. But they make up over 30% of the local trail association membership :D

@loam2home: funnily enough one of the trails in the video is built by a lazy E-biker ;)

I think I need to put a Square Payment reader on my trail (the 'other' one) so all the people / businesses who monetize it can help with tools / beer.... The permit that you got (and told me in load tones) probably paid for a District Of Squamish Bylaw Officer for two hours. A big loss all-round :D

I loved the one fingered salute. Switched off and going digging.
