Apparently riding an electric bike is better for couch potatoes than riding a bike

[KatyMac]

But I lost the research!!

It's because you will actually ride it because it's pretty easy and gradually build up your stamina!

Make sense.
Unless you are pretty enthusiastic, I should imagine a pretty small % of people who get themselves a bike, actually go out on it more than a handful of times, but I can see that if you can get up hills with some "engine" support, it would be more likely to be used for commuting or trips to shops or other shorter journeys you need to make.

I'm all over the place on mine!

But of a disaster after an unexpected biopsey at a hospital appointment but heyho!!

I can get the best part of a weeks shop in my pannier bags & when I'm feeling rough I just turn the motor up
