    Ehhhhhh I can’t agree. When you’re pedaling it’s a completely different feel and mentality. It still feels very much like a bicycle and you belong in bike lanes.

    No pedaling is a motorbike and you belong on the road.

    Only exemption is for physically disabled. I think they could have no pedaling and 30 km/h just so they have access to bike lanes.
