I have 3 bikes right now. An upright ebike for around town and short trips, a recumbent ebike for 50+ mile trips, and a mtb/commuter (mostly to handle the winters). I ride everywhere around town, and I do lots of bike camping around my area.
Nice! I keep wanting to try bike camping but haven’t ever gotten organized enough to figure it out.
If you’re around Madison, WI I’m running group campouts now! Have one coming up this weekend and will do more over the summer.
I am over in the PNW but that sounds awesome!
I have a regular cheap no-name bike. I usually ride it to do groceries or to spend some time in the forest. I drive it to work too if it takes no more than 30 minutes. I added a wire basket to fit more stuff. It’s in need of mainteance, I got a flat tire 2 days ago, oops.
I am riding a Tern GSD S00 and have put about 100miles/mo on the bike in the last 18mo for errands and commutes to my 2 kids school.
I love the bike but the maintenance is quite a pain. In particular replacing brake pads is annoying due to all of the accessories. Also, the lock failed and a caliper exploded requiring a warranty replacement.
Cargo ebikes are awesome but it seems the hardware needs to be heavier duty to make maintenance less fussy.
