Greetings MBc forumites. I ran across your awesome forum while looking for a way to motorize my wife's bike. She had a heart transplant about 5 years ago, and although doing well, she doesn't have the strength or stamina that most of us should. (She had her txplnt at 29. So she's still in her prime.) I am hoping that a little help (motor) will allow her to take some nice long rides with me. We are still each others best friends after 8 years of marriage, so I don't ride as much as I used to because I'd rather do stuff with her.
After much lurkage here I am starting to have a fuzzy understanding of your lingo! I am even contemplating building one for myself to use as a commuter! (I struggle with that one, because my commute is 25 miles each way.)
One question I have is about where you can legally ride with the motor assist. We have some fantastic trails around here, and I know some of them are posted "No Motorized Vehicles", but how far can it be pushed? Is the occasional boost gonna get us a ticket?
