I just want to say that an ebike is more than a crutch for people who aren’t in good shape. I’m in good shape too, car-free, and had been riding acoustic bikes my whole life. It’s awesome, but last summer I bought an electric cargo bike, and this opens up horizons. I still have and ride my old mountain bike for shorter rides, but when I have to go faster, further, and carry more stuff the ebike is a godsend. I’ve crossed snowy forest paths where pedal power was just not enough to maintain momentum. I’ve given people lifts. I’ve trucked like a dozen tonnes of fieldstone from construction sites to build a retaining wall (over several trips ofc but I can easily carry like 500# of stone per go, and it’s easier to get to the stone piles with a bike than anything else).
