You’re repeating Sliver’s baseless claim that the people using e-bikes on the recreation paths are otherwise unable to use the path system. I guess maybe a few suffer from invisible disabilities. But most look fine to me; no different from the people walking and riding bikes, who come in all ages and shapes and fitness levels. The ones on e-bikes simply don’t want to exert effort. Which is fine. Just don’t paint this as some kind of ethical cause enabling access to people who otherwise couldn’t use the pathways.
Once again, not everyone wants to combine their commute with exercise. That's okay.
