Carlie at the CHI cardiac clinic gave me a thumbs up to return to bike riding. “If you’re walking six miles without a problem, yeah, go ahead, get back on the bike.”
Did a lot of online shopping for a new e-bike to replace my nine year old iZip. Ultimately just went with the recommendation of Broken Spoke, the local bike shop, with a Trek Verve+ 2. Twenty pounds lighter than the old bike, newer battery tech with longer range. Bought some nice dry-bag panniers for cargo in all weathers, now that I have fenders for riding in all weathers.
Buying local gets me a year of free tune-ups and software updates, and I support a local business that’s invaluable to the community.
