This is interesting, courtesy of the B-blog....  they apparently dealt with shops in San Antonio and Austin.

Hey, don't knock assist. They went over 1000 miles with a rider that was not a rando class rider in just over a week and their average miles per day was about 100...

I ride my bike to ride my bike, and sometimes it takes me where I need to go.

I've often considered power assist. It probably would mean I could commute 5days instead of 3days.
 
Not sure how I'd count the miles though and my bike is already overweight.
