The ebike class 1/2/3 concept is stupid puritan nonsense driven by cyclist jealousy and serves only to limit the usefulness of ebikes as car replacements.

      Exactly. We have service paths along canals that once we’re used to pull barges. Now they are popular bicycle connections because of the straight and flat path they offer. Class C bikes were prohibited to take these roads for a while but now they changed regulation to limit the speed along these paths to 30 km/h (19 mph).
