ebikes!

While still allowing regular bikes to be used, the users' of non-powered bikes may attend with the understanding that hills and headwinds might be a challenge for them to keep pace on CycleNuts Eternative tours.

CycleNuts Motto: WTV it is... Ride it!
The acronym WTV stands for “whatever.” (source: the wordcounter.com). Being from Cleveland, I just assumed everybody knew that WTV means 'whatever' and I am glad that some of you have asked me what WTV means in the CycleNuts motto - WTV it is...Ride it! It means, CycleNuts welcomes all sorts of cycles on tour. Speaking of WTV it is...many are adding the big E to their cycling stable - including me. I like it. CycleNuts is about cycle touring. E-bikes increase touring possibilities for those who formerly were limited by their cycling ability to overcome distance, headwind, and hills - especially if lugging additional touring gear. My e-bike has opened touring opportunities. I am sure yours will, as well. |
