It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

How much of the year is the weather too bad for you to ride? 4? 6?

I ride my ebike almost every day of the year, winter included. It does get pretty cold here for about 4 months, but we don't get too much snow/ice. That said, even if the weather was too crappy to ride for 4 months of the year, that's still 8 months of the year that I can ride the bike, so very much worth the investment for me.
