Technical question about ebikes, Strava, and FS

[josh]

I think they will be included (unless they’re excluded for other reasons e.g. invalid dates or #nobafs or whatever the exclude keyword is).

…
if activity.type not in (Activity.RIDE, Activity.EBIKERIDE):
raise IneligibleActivity(
“Skipping ride {0} ({1!r}) because it is not a RIDE or EBIKERIDE.”.format(activity.id, activity.name))
…
[/CODE]

I need an official ruling, please. Will my miles on these Ski Bikes count for Freezing Saddles?
(say yes)

As a pedaling ski biker, I’d vote no. These rely only on gravity and no pedaling at all.

We can compromise – these miles count as long as you’re climbing. Downhill miles do not count.

[Edelweiss]

We count all the miles we ride downhill, often not pedaling. Gravity is a big part of riding. What if a kid is on a balance bike? No pedals, but still riding a bike, right? E

It doesn’t have wheels, pedals, or a drivetrain, but it does have a handlebar and you sit down, so that makes it a bike? If so, please count the miles I do on this crate bike where I sit down, hold a handlebar annnnd it even has wheels!

As an aside, do miles from meat bikes count?

We spent months at one point defining what a bike was. Your definition wouldn’t cover this:

Or this:

I believe the final resolution was that people should be reasonable. And that since this is not the Grand Prix, we were not going to spend major amounts of energy on enforcement.
