the BionX 250-PL system<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Pedalling is required, and the amount of assistance provided is proportionate to the amount of effort you put in \u2013 the harder you pedal, the more it will help you out. You can also switch\u00a0to zero assistance\u00a0on flats and downhills.<\/p>\n<p>To prolong battery life, braking recharges the battery. Also, you can choose from <strong>four levels of resistance<\/strong> on downhills, which saves your brakes while at the same time charging the battery.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">In short, the whole system is quite brilliant \u2013 a triumph of clever engineering that I would say justifies its\u00a0steep price.<\/p>\n<p>I pedalled along happily for a while, going much faster than usual on uphills, and saving the battery on all the flats. Although the BionX electric bike kit adds a hefty 30 pounds to a bike, it is still perfectly easy to pedal it on muscle power alone on flats.<\/p>\n<h3>Bike Maps Suck!<\/h3>\n<p>About 10 minutes into the trip I discovered that the dotted green line which seemed so easy to follow on the map is nowhere near as easy in real life. First of all, it was constantly interrupted with traffic intersections. Second, I was sometimes forced to divert onto the road for brief sections. Third, sometimes when I did that, I could not find the trail again.<\/p>\n<h3>Hapless in Burnaby<\/h3>\n<p>I admit that getting lost possibly had a little to do with the fact that I am severely directionally challenged. However, it also had not a little to do with the fact that the signage was frequently <strong>pathetic<\/strong> (as is true of almost every bike trail in the Lower Mainland, with the notable exception of the <a href=\"https:\/\/averagejoecyclist.com\/central-valley-greenway-review\/\" target=\"_blank\">Central Valley Greenway<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Also like many other bike routes, the\u00a07-11 BC Parkway often simply peters out, with no signage \u2013 so that all of a sudden I would find myself in a parking lot. After Edmonds skytrain station I got lost several times, and kept having to make my way back to the station to try again.<\/p>\n<p>By that time, the sky had become much darker, and it was getting harder to see, even though it was only around 3 in the afternoon. I wandered around miserably for a while, peering hopelessly into the distance in search of the green\u00a07-11 signs. I stopped intermittently to peer rather hopelessly at the map, which I had by then realized was \u2013 like the signage \u2013 woefully inadequate. My cheerful Warrior Spirit was by now beginning to slip, just a bit.<\/p>\n<p>At last I found the trail again, somewhere in the region of Edmonds skytrain station. I set off again at a brisk pace, enjoying the relatively effortless feel of biking with BionX electric bike. This was more like it. I pedalled for ages, and began wondering when I would see my first sign of New West. The odd thing was that the terrain just kept seeming almost exactly the same. I concluded that gently decaying pavement underneath a skytrain line probably looks the same everywhere.<\/p>\n<h3>Torrential Equatorial Downpour \u2013 in Burnaby<\/h3>\n<p>Around then, a strange meteorological phenomenon occurred. Although it is many years since I have lived in Africa, I was suddenly assaulted by a torrential equatorial downpour. The wind was smashing the rain into my face, so that I could hardly see. Every item of my clothing was wet through and clinging to me. I began to shiver. Bionic strength could not make up for this misery \u2013 my cheerful Warrior Spirit plummeted. Whose stupid idea was this, anyway?<\/p>\n<p>At yet another intersection I pressed the button and waited miserably, well aware that I was the only person outdoors for miles around. The pelting rain seemed to be spurring motorists to increase their speed, as they were all racing down the hill. The light turned red for them, but they simply sped straight through. I waited patiently.<\/p>\n<h3>Almost Run Over by a Car going Backwards!<\/h3>\n<p>Finally, the motorists noticed the red light. One of them skidded to a halt halfway across the intersection. I set out to cross the road, then had to run backwards very fast because the driver began <strong>backing into the intersection<\/strong>, entirely oblivious of me \u2013 despite the fact that I was wearing bright yellow and resembled nothing so much as a gigantic, furious bumble bee, jumping up and down and waving wildly.<\/p>\n<p>On the next green pedestrian light I succeeded in crossing the street, my cycling sandals squelching loudly with each step. I climbed miserably back on my electric bike to continue my odyssey, thinking, \u201cAm I there yet?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Seemingly hours later, the rain finally\u00a0let up, but still I could see no sign of New West. I decided to stop and ask for help. Two helpful young women told me that the skytrain station I was approaching was Patterson \u2013 the one I had set out from two hours ago! How did that happen? Was the downpour some kind of twilight zone? Was I doomed to be lost forever, cycling in a monsoon, eternally returning in an infernal circle to Patterson skytrain station? By now, I was no longer feeling like a Green Warrior. I was just totally depressed. I realized I must have accidentally headed the wrong way after the lost-at-Edmonds fiasco. (Needless to say, this was before I got a <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00EM2HVYA\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B00EM2HVYA&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=avejoecyc0e-20&amp;linkId=CNOCGDIBGXSPUERK\" target=\"_blank\">Garmin Edge Touring\u00a0 GPS Bike Computer<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/averagejoecyclist.com\/?p=4376\" target=\"_blank\">reviewed here<\/a>)<\/strong>, which now saves me from getting hopelessly lost.)<\/p>\n<h3>Pathetically Seeking Sympathy<\/h3>\n<p>I debated what to do. I could just hop on the skytrain and go back home, or I could skytrain out to New West. I was too wet and miserable to make a decision. So I swallowed my pride and phoned my fianc\u00e9e to discuss (and secretly, to look for sympathy). Once she realized that I had been cycling rapidly and bionically for two hours and was now <strong>back where I started from<\/strong>, she hurt my ear with a great bellow of laughter. <strong>So<\/strong> not helpful.<\/p>\n<p>When she was done laughing, Maggie suggested I skytrain to Columbia station, where I would be just a short bike ride from her condo. So I got back on the skytrain. I stood there in the last carriage, clinging to my wet electric bike with one sodden glove, and the slippery metal pole with the other. Water was running down off my helmet and plopping onto my nose, but I did not have any free hands to do anything about it. Every time I moved, I squelched. I was well aware that everyone in the carriage was staring at me. Mercifully, no one laughed. Not out loud, anyway.<\/p>\n<h3>Bottom Line on the BionX PL-250 Electric Bike<\/h3>\n<p>So OK, this was <strong>not<\/strong> the greatest ride of my life. But on the plus side, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B0025UJ3XI\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B0025UJ3XI&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=avejoecyc0e-20&amp;linkId=2IKNA3INOQZVEMZX\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>BionX electric bike was a dream<\/strong><\/a>. It kept going the whole time, unperturbed by the pelting, soaking rain.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>My love affair with electric bikes had begun, and it will last for the rest of my life.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u00a0The BionX electric bike unit\u00a0was completely waterproof. In fact, I have ridden BionX electric bikes in pelting rain, day after day, and even in snow, without ever having a problem. One day<a href=\"http:\/\/bionxbikemotor.com\/blog\/2011\/02\/28\/bionx-to-the-rescue\/\" target=\"_blank\"> my drive chain and gears froze and I could not pedal, but the BionX engine got me to work!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The BionX PL-250 electric bike did all I needed it to do. It got me cyling again, and it got me healthy and fit again (<strong>research shows that people with electric bikes often get fitter than people with regular bikes, because they bike more often<\/strong>). Eventually my commute changed to include very steep, very long hills, and I upgraded to a <a href=\"https:\/\/averagejoecyclist.com\/review-bionx-pl-350\/\" target=\"_blank\">BionX PL-350<\/a> electric bike (although I still keep my PL-250 electric bike as a backup). Together, my two BionX electric bike kits have got me so fit that I now routinely bike 50 or 60 km a day on the weekend, <strong>without an assist<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">My advice: if you need an assist and have a route that does not include monstrous hills, the <strong>BionX PL-250 electric bike should suffice to transform you from a car driver into a Green Warrior on a bike<\/strong>, leaving younger, fitter cyclists watching your disappearing tail lights and wondering what happened!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For quality and power, the BionX PL-250 electric bike kit rates an Average Joe Cyclist Bike Gold Star! <a
