I also want to mention, not only do we focus on electric bikes, but also cargo/kid carrying bikes. The latest in the shop is the Madsen, which can carry up to four kids plus groceries in a bucket on the back. We'll soon be posting some pictures on our website, but in the meantime you can see more at http://www.madsencycles.com. We have a rental available to try out (either with or without electric). I wanted to respond to Roger, just to mention that I feel safer on my electric bike on busy roads, because I integrate with traffic better by keeping up a higher speed, and accelerating faster. There are some rides I will do on my electric bike, that I wouldn't do on my road bike, even though I've done quite a bit of regular road bike riding (and some racing). But I do wish that the roads in this area had wider shoulders, that would help everyone. Ride Your Bike More, Morgan from cycle9.com Hi Tao,

Thought many times about electrifying it. It's mainly for fun and exercise at this point. And Greensboro is way spread out and dangerous for biking. What I need is a JOB to commute TO>!!!
