This does not meet the definition of electric bicycle in most US states under the three class law. Class 2 which allows a throttle must have operable pedals.

.@limebike is piloting what they call a "pedal-less electric bicycle", see picture. I'm not sure if it's an e-scooter with a seat, or an electric moped. But I do know that most people wouldn't call it a "bicycle" as it isn't active mobility.

The Hudson River Greenway needs hands-on management for active transportation, not a mishmash of sudden detours and motorcycle intrusions. Neither @NYCParks nor @NYC_DOT can do it alone. The agencies need coordination from @NYCMayor and haven't seen it since the Bloomberg years.

Wheels applied for a micromobility contract in Nashville three years ago. Not a real stable industry.

I think most people would be surprised at their ability to ride an e-bike 5 miles or more.
Philadelphia is a car city (@beansandbikes) profile picturePhiladelphia is a car city@beansandbikes25 Aug 2024
I would suspect that this is not true, and even if it was, it takes fairly minimal training to be able to bike 5 miles compared to what it takes to be able to run 5 miles
