I live in a very bike friendly city and recently made the decision to get an e bike instead of a new car after my previous car was totaled. Today was the first day I commuted via bike to work and it felt so. Fricking. Great. I wasn’t paying an arm and a leg for gas, I was moving my body, just all around a really excellent experience! And to think I was so nervous about doing something new!

I’m in the process of picking an e bike to commute with and run errands with, I’m wondering what accessories (besides a helmet obviously) others have found helpful when rolling around our rainy city? Any tips to increase the safety of my commute (mostly on the Burke Gilman) or riding in the streets of Seattle?
