Where about are you riding?
I’m also in Aberdeenshire, and picked up my first emtb on Monday. Looking forward to testing it out at the weekend!!

Evening gents there's another couple of us ebikers in Aberdeenshire, Banchory and Alford direction. We recently met up for a ride and intending doing plenty more exploration. Levo and Merida 2020.

I often visit Pitfichie, Kirkhill, Counteswells, and sometimes Scolty on my regular MTB. Hoping the eMTB will help me branch out further and get more riding done in the same amount of time as I usually spend!

another Aberdeen resident, no ebike yet but pondering the Orbea but lack of local demo bikes is frustrating. What are you guys riding?

I got a Trek Rail. Pretty much a blind purchase - other than sitting on one in Alpine bikes!

Looking forward to getting it on the trails at the weekend for a proper test, as I’ve only had a brief ride round the streets in the dark so far.

Once I’ve familiarised myself with my bike, it’d be good to ride with some other eMTB riders.
My current batch all think I’m mad getting a battery / motor... so I’ll probably have to ride my Stumpjumper if I’m out with them!

Definitely up for a ride out with a few guys on ebikes! Great to share the fun!
