First off: I'd ride it.

Secondly, my only problem with the electric Bikes, so far, is the limited range. Especially, out here in the west where you can go hundreds of miles in certain areas without a charging station.

With the right style - definitely. There should be enough space on a cruiser to store batteries. Unfortunately, most manufacturers seem only to think of sports/naked bikes. Plus, around here we only get scooter type, if we want electric...

I'd ride it too. Just ride a ebike that has hub motors in each wheel. The only difficult thing was on slippery surface. If the front wheel spins it was extremely difficult to not crash. But aside from that the draw back is recharge time and distance Jason's point is of concern. There are roads in South West or Western USA that may have 120 miles between any type of service
Station. And recharge time.
Style. I ride first looks are very minor to me

Bikes like these seem to be much more suitable for being a commuter bike, rather than one which would go great distance.

One hundred miles range on a charge would be fantastic in this type of use.

John M Flores might be able to weigh in on the subject.

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
