I am in the market for a Whizzer or other quality motorized Bike. I used to work for Ross Patterson of Pat's Cyclery and he was a great one with a story. He told of riding to Mesa from Chicago on a Whizzer back in the 1940's. He still owned one in the 90's when I worked there.
I used to ride 5,000 to 10,000 miles a year. I used to build bike frames and trailers for bicycles. I hope to get back to making some interesting things for family and my use. I owned Lenny's Bikes and Things for a year and went way broke. I worked at least 15 years in a number of bike shops in the Phoenix area.
This forum looks like a good place to hang out and glean some ideas. I hurt my back 10 or more years ago and stopped riding. I miss riding and with gas so expensive decided to get back to cycling, but with a motor assist. Now I am looking to get more active and this is a good way for me I am sure. I will really need to learn the motorized part.
