Jared and Duane rent a Lime and a Spin electric bike in downtown Tampa--just for fun.
Dockless electric bikes are popping up in urban areas all around the country. You rent them with an app on your phone and off you go. The ease of use and quality of ride is suprisingly good!

Episode 30: The Idaho Stop
Jared and Duane discuss the "Idaho Stop" or the "Delaware Yield" -- traffic laws in some states that allow bicyclists to roll through stop signs and even treat red lights like a stop sign. Be careful -- this is all at your own risk!
The Idaho Stop explained (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idaho_stop).
Recent changes in Colorado (https://www.koaa.com/homepage-showcase/the-safety-stop-law-local-biking-community-for-it-while-others-share-concerns#:~:text=COLORADO%20SPRINGS%20%E2%80%94%20%E2%80%9CThe%20Safety%20Stop,light%20as%20a%20stop%20sign.).

Episode 29: Secondhand Sparks
Thinking about buying a used e-bike? Duane and Jared give some food for thought on pre-owned electric bikes. Stay tuned to the end for a discussion of our guest appearance at Pedego Palooza and an appeal for help from our locals!
Some thoughts on buying a [used bike] from Bicycling Magazine (https://www.bicycling.com/bikes-gear/a20008824/how-to-buy-a-used-bike/) and BikeRadar (https://www.bikeradar.com/features/how-to-buy-a-used-or-second-hand-bike-online/)
For our friends in the Tampa Bay area, please consider taking the Pinellas County E-Bike Survey (https://www.opentownhall.com/portals/255/Issue_11723). And pass it along to anyone you know that might use the Pinellas Trail!
Thanks again to our friends at Pedego Dunedin (https://pedegoelectricbikes.com/dealers/dunedin/). If you're a Pedego owner and want to catch Pedego Palooza when it comes near you, here's the link. (https://pedegoelectricbikes.com/pedego-palooza/)
P.S. - No, Jared's Radwagon is NOT for sale. Jared informs us that the sign on the staged cover pic was shredded immediately after the photo was taken. ;-)
