Bicycling SquareOffs

I don't understand why people don't want to exercise. The worst is all the kids nowadays that ride e-bikes and escooters. Yeesh

No I do not like electric bikes or electric cars and never go near downtown Bend!

I have nothing against them but I ride mine standard road bike for exercise.

I don't ride bikes in traffic!!

I think it's a bad idea for the city to rent them out it's bad enough people are drinking and driving people drink and riding them is bad also

It's bad enough we have to watch out for drunk tourists on foot, now they'll be on bikes too.....

Bend, especially has enough traffic problems without having to deal with electric bikes.

Another hazard for us to deal with. Drunk e-bike riders. What could possibly go wrong. I wonder if they will have insurance to pay for accidents?

When I'm on the river trail I have to watch out for them, they go fast

its a mess

Bicycles of any kind have no place whatsoever on public roads, it is an obvious accident waiting to happen, people deliberately put themselves in harms way! Bicycles should be expressly forbidden on road with NO SHOULDER!!! They do not have and should not have any right of way, they pay no taxes!

They will be left all over the place and there needs to be more straight laws. Like are you a pedestrian or a car? Forced to wear helmets if you are using any turning lanes or round a bouts. If they are a car forced to stop at signals and signs. They rule the road in bend and don't get the liability
