DoorDash's investment in Also aims to develop and accelerate the deployment of autonomous delivery at scale, focusing on areas not yet fully solved for, including intersections of roadways and bike lanes.
A Mahle controller sits on the toptube. Ridley designed the E-Grifn to be identical to the rest of their Grifn lineup. The geometry matches, and the visual differences between the bikes are pretty minimal. However, there are definitely some slight differences, such as a larger downtube to house the battery. Certain mounting points have also been removed in favor of internal electronics.
Strava is using "Machine Learning" (ML) models to help clean up logged riding errors, intentional or not. James, an engineer at Strava, explained in the post that the recent crackdowns were threefold. First, they introduced a new ML model, specifically aimed at catching e-bikes. This "Enhanced E-Bike Detection" flags and removes activities logged as a normal ride, but that were clearly recorded with electric assist.
The LGHS Bicycle Safety and Training Program requires every student who rides a bike to campus to take a safety course and register their bike online for free. The registration includes contact information and a picture of the bike so that the school can work with police if the bike is lost or stolen. The safety course requires students to watch a video and complete a test that emphasizes the importance of proper equipment and care, rules of the road and best practices.
A lot of what we can do at DOT is ... is focusing on designing our streets, designing our infrastructure, to make it easier for delivery workers to make safe choices, to operate safely, to reduce conflicts between them and other users, whether that's basically wider bike lanes that can accommodate a wider range of users,
ReTyre's unique 'carbon-neutral' tire tech looks set to make big inroads in performance and real-world availability, thanks to a new development partnership with Vittoria and a fresh round of venture capital investment. Together, the funding and Vittoria collaboration will help ReTyre expand production of their pioneering sustainable tires. And it signals a shift from making tires for less-demanding applications like kids' bikes and strollers, stepping up to make durable, high-performance eco tires for everyday urban and commuting bikes and ebikes.
Every January, the city of Las Vegas, Nevada hosts the Consumer Electronics Show (CES). This annual convention focuses on the newest, most advanced technology-packed products aiming to make our lives easier and more fun. Tens of thousands of enthusiasts, industry reps, reporters, investors, and influencers flock to the event, anxious to see the latest tech on display. This year, the gargantuan halls of
I'm no psychologist, but I get a sense Segway turned up to CES 2026 with something to prove after last year. Certainly, it's gone out of its way to prove its micromobility bona fides with the press, who perhaps were a bit too sniffy that scooter people were launching an e-bike. This year, Segway's not just launching two more mainstream e-bikes, but an electric dirt bike, all of which are crammed with the sort of tech that might just make everyone halt their sniffiness.
After causing a splash at last year's CES with a pair of high-tech, high-powered e-bikes, Segway returned to the show with a little something more for everyone. The Ninebot-owned brand announced two new e-bikes - the seemingly conventional-looking Myon, and the low-step, short-tail Muxi - as well as a sharp-looking electric dirt bike called the Xaber 300. In previous years, Segway veered toward gimmicky reveals, like goofy self-balancing pods and paintball-shooting go-karts.
Here are the morning's top stories on Wednesday, December 31, 2025... HSIs were created in the 1990s to ensure that colleges enrolling large numbers of Latino students received adequate funding to help those students graduate. In California, more than 90% of community colleges, and 21 out of 22 California State Universities and seven of nine University of California undergraduate campuses qualify as HSIs. Community colleges in the state estimate they will lose at least $20 million this year.
scores of new laws related to motor vehicles, transportation and traffic safety go into effect. Here are some of the new laws signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom that become effective this year, from the California Highway Patrol and the Department of Motor Vehicles. Electric bike safety: E-bikes now must have a red reflector or a solid or flashing red light with a built-in reflector on the rear whenever they are used, not just when it's dark out as the law previously required.
Despite the proposal being postponed, some residents weighed in. Residents said some of the new policies should include exceptions, such as allowing e-bike riding on the sidewalk. Rebecca Ratcliff said many bike lanes are used by delivery cars to park, making it necessary to bike on sidewalks. Sometimes there is glass or debris on the street, also making it dangerous, and by not addressing these issues but implementing new polices will decrease the public's interest in bicycling, Ratcliff said.
"His Vespa had gotten stolen and we just kinda had this crazy idea ... if we were to design one for the future that was all-electric, had the best technology, what would it look like? What would it feel like?" Cohen explained. As I stood beside P1, a $10,000 electric seated scooter, and Olto, a $3,495 bike-lane legal class 2 e-bike, that question had been answered. The brothers' company started shipping the P1 to customers in October and expects to deliver Olto in early 2026.
The Brussels-based electric bike company has officially closed its deal to be acquired by ReBirth Group Holding, which also owns cycling brands Peugeot, Gitane, and Solex. The transaction includes new, undisclosed funding from ReBirth as well as €15 million ($17.6 million) from existing shareholders. The funding will be used to restart production and deal with a backlog of spare parts, the companies say.
On the morning when I went with them, we walked just a few yards out of the police station to set up a morning check in the City. There were cyclists ignoring pedestrian crossings and red lights, and moving dangerously through pedestrians, despite the fact that they were outside a police station and there were six or seven uniformed officers on cycles, on the road and on the pavement.
