What possible problem could anyone have with an electric powered bicycle? I simply cannot comprehend banning one of the cleanest quietest most efficient forms of transportation yet invented unless you have a financial benefit like a car company or a parking lot or a road builder. Bikes allow far more traffic than cars and take up almost no parking space, don't pollute and do nothing different than a pedaled bike which is allowed, so what's the problem? As a handicapped person, I use an e-bike daily and can't see why they are banned as they cause no hassles to anyone and create positive traffic flow.
