    Hey Justin, just curious, are you flying back? it just seems funny and ironic that you spend $10 to cross the country and spend hundreds(if not more) to get back. I have a friend that is training to do this (without electric) to bike back from halifax. for charity. cheers, Rod

    How much have you spent on your ebike?

    For the bike with an extra battery = $76 + an 84 toyota tercel. but I saved almost $200 for 2 months insurance that I got reimbursed for getting rid of the car. so I guess I made money on getting the bike. :mrgreen:
