I guess it's not something I'm looking for per se. I just see all of these interesting looking bike trails interlaced into the neighborhood. They turned the old Sugarpine railroad easement into really neat bike trails. You can only run or take a bike on them. And you can't really take a motorcycle on them, or my Polaris. I think that would be frowned upon. I already drive the Polaris in plenty of places where I'm not supposed to. But you can take a "bicycle" pretty much anywhere. A traditional bike has limitations too. Like you really don't want to be out peddling around in 105F degree heat. I think an e-bike hits it's stride on a 5-mile ride. Less than 1 mile you can take a bike. And over 5 and I think you need a motorcycle or car.

And one of my friends takes her e-bike literally all over town. It's the removal of limitations that I like. You can ride an e-bike right up to any building in town.

The Sport model matches the Cayman and Macan, lol. I like the design and integrated lights a lot.
