All kidding aside that looks good, might have to copy that when I dig ours out of storage next spring.

It actually has a better effect the further away you are.

Looks good but is that a hitch-type rack on the rear of your RV?

Have you given thought to mounting tail lights on it for those of "our friends" who follow too close and "go bump in the night"?

Yes, that is why I added the light bars. Travel with bikes.

Are those Ebikes on the back? The look small - are they adult size? How many passengers do you carrier or do you like 3 spares? LOL.

I have been thinking about an E Mtn bike for a while. But the one I want (Specialized Levo Comp - Full suspension Mtn bike) cost around $6000 but they are awesome.

A small street affordable Ebike makes alot of sense around the campsite.

They have a new model XS but it seems to have the same battery and run time as the X Model. Do they really run 30-40 miles on a charge? This forum cost me a fortune every time I log on. This is perfect for Christmas!!!

Good info on the Ebike. The market has really just started in the US but in the Europe its been a big market for years and keeps on growing.

Small RV for the 5 of you but it sound like here shortly it will just be the two of you.

The XS.. They are only making 100 of them. Have a 750 watt Motor and 20 amp controller and halls A$$,plus different forks brakes etc. (i should order one).Yes they do go that far. I have never run out of juice on any of the bikes yet. The Sondors Facebook page is Identical to this forum, tons of helpful people offering advise,parts, suggestions All very positive ck it out. SONDORS does no advertising and has a Huge Happy Following. I'm 5 11" 225 this bike hauls me around like a feather.

LED strips are pretty easy to track down.
TricLEDs sells a bunch of different lengths, that can be used as brake and running lights.
Spyderpops is another good source.
NOTE: both of these vendors are selling them for use on motorcycles, but all 12-volt systems can sure use them...
