I know 68style has relatively quickly found himself a family doctor since moving to Calgary. But the impression I'm getting from just following the news and reading stuff online seems to suggest the healthcare provider situation is worse in Alberta than it is in BC.

Of course, GS8 is able to give them some first hand info on the issue, so obviously I won't pretend to be the expert here.
It's mostly luck based (in both provinces). There are many people in AB who found a doctor relatively quick (particularly up north).

I wouldn't worry about what the media is saying. Sometimes, it's as simple as driving around and seeing signs, or reaching out to community groups for some leads.

This site is great to point you in the right direction but obviously due dillegence is good, because you want your family doctor to actually be good!

But you can still judge them for their spandex padded shorts, and 8$/per titanium bolt for their stem and cranks. (So they can brag about how light their bike is)

It's to relieve a pressure point. If there's no cutout you can get penile numbness.

This brand is infamous for their saddles cut outs and shapes.

i def get numbness down there if i'm sitting too long and not getting out of the saddle. cutout or not, it happens. especially on the bike trainer where you never get off the saddle like you would at a stop light or whatever like you do irl

I don’t know but it comes with free comments about your sexuality and middle fingers from all other motorcycle riders.

They don't seem to sell the Vespa EV here yet, but the other day I saw an Evoque e bike that legit looks like a sports bike:

https://ebikes.evoqueca.com/products...c-sports-ebike



But 4 - 8 hours charge for 130 - 200km range @ Cdn $8 - 10k doesn't sound all that impressive though.

It's estimated to be in the $9K - $12K range.

Range will probably be trash just like their products.

I want one.

I need some sort of solo EV pod that I can commute to work with on the sidewalk lol. Something small enough that I can get away with parking it in the bike locker

Nobody wants these damn things cuz it’s like basically a 50cc Vespa. Aka too slow. The slowness makes it unsafe for commuting.

I’d take the big frame Vespa any day. 300cc, fast enough to pass people on the highway. Goes 120kph easily.

you know who the demographics are... everyone who don't have time to take a motorcycle license community.
heck when i did my license at Action motorcycle in the 2000s, 1/2 the class would fail the road test. then the other half were harley riders who rode for years but no license.
with E bike... hell with it.. i just speed and go.

Now for the bike itself.. what people don't know is maintenance. After 2 years or so, rust woudl get to it and just die. parts are done.
Who woudl buy these? Uber.. they will just see it as cost of doing business and ride it till it dies and buy a new one.

Happens a lot in Toronto and man the salt and winter just rusts these things right now.

Need a full motorcycle license for anything over 50cc tho... that's a huge impediment to your average person who just wants to commute around
