Since I bought the Grizzly https://arielrider.com/products/grizzly, I ride it to many places near the house, usually within 10 miles. Its plenty fast with globs of torque. I spin front wheel with 1/2 throttle input on tarmac, dry all day long. 50 mile range with just battery power, no pedal or any human assist including some uphills. Good thing about this bike is that its really a moped or a weak 80-100 CC motor cycle. The loophole is the pedals so its an assisted bicycle in our state therefor no lic or registration is needed. Unlock it and it will go 38 mph with full throttle. I think its perfect in and around the trails you described.
Sugar Mt Railroad. You aren't talking about the one couple miles south of Fishcamp? That's one of my favorite train ride. If so, how much of that track did they remove? |
Yes, Sir all 100% true. The only section that is bike trail is in the area on North Fresno, in the area between River Park and Clovis. But there are miles and miles and miles from the San Joaquin River all the way to Tower if a person wanted to ride.
I bought two expensive bikes - one aluminum chrome-moly and the other 100% carbon fiber. Riding them is way too much like real work. I like the idea of putting around slower than pedal power but without the sweat and stretchy shorts.
