Marc Hedlund on Nostr: If riding an ebike is "cheating" compared to other exercise, why do my ebike rides ...
If riding an ebike is "cheating" compared to other exercise, why do my ebike rides have such a profound effect on my happiness and physical well-being? Why do I have measurably better health and get dramatically more minutes of activity compared to when I was riding a non-electric bike? Why can't I find a single downside to this form of exercise other than cost?
If it walks like exercise and quacks like exercise, maybe just call it exercise and leave off the judgment.
