My eyes gaped when he went towards the intersection. My head was essentially bouncing between two thoughts. "Must make viral video and become a millionaire." And "Holy shit that man is dead."

@Smific I though the same thing first time I watched the video:)

[bobo888bobo]

where did you film this? it looks like it could be around Langley BC, near the US border

[greasypants]

@bobo888bobo

 Not a bad guess but no. I filmed it in Belcarra by Port Moody.

very cool. what is your 50 MPH to 0 distance/time

[greasypants]

@jbhelix108 I have never measured it bike the bike acrually stops pretty good with 8 inch brake rotors and hydraulic brakes.

[nepalnt2121]

@doirealyneed1 Also leave them on in case they run out of battery power so they can pedal home. Thing is, if you are going too fast..like 30 mph in a 20mph zone and see a cop, your first reaction is to pedal as if you reached 30 mph by pedal power. That is a mistake though cause your feet go around way to fast and with no resistence, they come off the pedals and you look silly. I've learned to brake first, then pedal. Looks more natural. Never been stopped by police yet, but I seldom speed.

[doirealyneed1]

I would have left the pedals on just to screw with people. = Cops lol

True

[dkw12002]

@MrNewYorkCityLover Exactly. Not everything with 2 wheels and an electric motor is an e-bike though. I ride a Zero S Motorcycle. It looks something like a bicycle and it has an electric motor, but it does not fit the definition of an e-bike because it goes too fast and the motor is too big. See? If you look further there will be a definition of what an e-bike is in California motor vehicle laws. Anything that produces over 1000watts of power and goes faster than 25 mph is NOT an e-bike in CA.

@dkw12002

From Wikipedia: Electric Bicycles are defined by the California Vehicle Code. Electric bicycles are operated like conventional bicycles in California. There are several exceptions to this. A person must be at least 16 years old, and anyone riding an electric bicycle must wear a bicycle helmet. DRIVER'S LICENSES, REGISTRATION, LICENSE PLATES, AND INSURANCE DO NOT APPLY.

[dkw12002]

@MrNewYorkCityLover The definition of an e-bike in California is an electric motor of no more than 1000 watts and capable of going no faster than 25 mph. Anything larger or faster than that is a motorcycle. If they stop you for speeding, you would really be in trouble cause you have no license plus you were speeding. If you aren't speeding, the size of the motor won't matter and they wouldn't even know what they were looking at, but at 59 mph, it's a motorcycle no matter what motor you have.

@dkw12002

But on Wikipedia, it's says that California dosen't count E-bikes as motor vehicles.
