If you or your children use e-powered scooters and bikes - please understand the role speed and weight play in maneuvering, and consequences of crush with another biker or walker. In this case, two adults are dead, including an innocent cyclist who was crushed into by a man on a powerful e-scooter.

Two people died in a collision between a rider on an electric scooter and another on a bike during the morning commute on a New York City bridge on Thursday.

The commuters were heading in opposite directions on the Queensboro Bridge when they collided, according to police.

One of the individuals was driving a Blade GT II scooter, according to investigators, which is illegal to operate on New York City streets because it can reach speeds of more than 50 miles per hour, in excess of what the city allows for e-mobility devices. https://abcnews.visitlink.me/PfvBVN

Great specs on a bike for easy fast recovery rides for you or a bike to enable your recreational / non-biking friend to join you on your long bikepack adventures or gravel races. Would make an excellent commuting bike if you want an athletic look and performance.
