How ya doing, yes from NJ lol.
Mtber since '89, moto before that and now getting my first ebike. Taking delivery of a orbea H15 this Friday, though I will be in sedona. It will be waiting for me when I return. Super pumped to throw a leg over the new ride. Current rides are 2021 Ibis Ripmo and 2021 Canfield Nimble 9.

Enjoy the Sedona MTB festival, hopefully the weather will hold out during the day. Maybe one day there will be inclusion of EMTB there.

I've been a moto guy myself, since 1987 and LOVE the EMTB. More miles, more smiles.

Congrats on getting your first emtb. You're going to love it. I was a long time moto guy also and like biking every bit as much as I did moto...probably more actually. Now, you're going to spend all your money on more useless crap than you ever did in moto. A lot of these things for no apparent reason and you'll never really figure out why the hell you even bought the shit. I mean, everyone mtb'r needs $2,000 worth of shorts don't they? Also, you probably have a lot of tools. Just so you know, they're now useless. You're going to have to get tools specifically for mtb's. They are the same as any other tool, but this doesn't matter. You'll need these new tools for some friggin reason. So, get ready to fill your house with more e bikes. One is never enough. And BTW...all these things are perfectly normal. My psychiatrist told me so.
