This has been an interesting read.
I'm happy to see people out riding ebikes. I only see seniors on ebikes, never anyone who's ridding aggressively. They always have huge smiles on their faces. I see them on the trails sometimes and I know that on some of the switchbacks on the uptrack, they are cutting the corners early damaging the grass. This doesn't really bother me. The expert riders are the ones causing damage to the trails around here. They are riding the trails much harder and of course making their own. Riding when it's wet and muddy. I don't have a problem with this either.
I'm shopping now for a fat tire ebike set up for ski touring access at my cabin. Sleds aren't practical for me since the road is mostly at low elevation and sun exposed, ie dirt for 70% of it. I've been using a jeep/atv, but it's a pain brining in fuel (boat access only). We have a micro hydro generator for electricity.
