RESCUED BY A GUY ON AN E-BIKE.
It’s a lot easier to be passionate about something you have experienced yourself.
And it makes it easy to understand how others feel who are in the similar situation.
A nightmare experience of getting completely lost on a MTB could have easily put me off from cycling forever!
Heat stroke and dehydration was not my idea of a fun MTB ride with uni friends.
And to top that, I was completely lost deep in the central mountains of Taiwan.
Had it not been for Tony that day riding his e-MTB at that moment on that trail I would not be sharing this.
Tony was fitter than me and was asking me : Why do you ride a “normal MTB ” ?
At that time I thought this was a joke or that this stranger had lost it.
Later he explained to me that the MTB Trail I was on was for “seriously fit and experienced mountain bikers”.
And although he was fit he would turn his ebike power off on the flats, light hills and downhills.
And then he would power up and use pedal assist on the major climbs when he was really struggling.
At that time electric bikes had only just launched in EU and so I had no idea what he was talking about
Until I ended up riding one!
And when I did I instantly became a passionate spokesperson for the Electric bike industry ;-)
If you have not ridden an e-bike I urge you to get on one to experience the thrill , the control and peace of mind.
The greatest inner reward and happiness in life is to be able to bring value to others.
I am ever grateful to Tony, the “Guy on the eMTB” for having paved the way for me in order for me to do the same.
