    Wandering around the North End a few days ago I spied a sign for electric bikes! Intrigued, I crossed the street and headed in to see what I might find.

    Apparently electric bikes go for around $700 and can run at speeds of 24-32 km/hr. They come with removable battery packs... the only thing I wondered is what the insurance costs for these might be. Are they still considered bikes, or are they more of a scooter? Cheaper than a scooter by some margin though! E-zip and Mongoose seemed to be the brands of choice.

    I wanted to ask a few questions of the sales staff but I clearly walked in on a weekly meeting so I kinda doubled back and out of the shop. Still, if you're in the market for a speedier form of transport, check this spot out!
