Command for finding the nearest e-bike #8

Open patcon opened 3 years ago

Depends on #2

A pilot of e-bikes has been launched: https://bikesharetoronto.com/e-bikes/

The app shows e-bikes as a special visual element on the map. I would be great if there was a way to query for then nearest e-bike instead of normal bikes. This command could be "🀷⚑" , as an additional specification beyond "🀷" for any nearest station.

Maybe use "β›‘" emoji to remind that it's law for e-bikes: https://www.toronto.ca/services-payments/streets-parking-transportation/cycling-in-toronto/cycling-and-the-law/#accordion-electric-bicycles-e-bikes-and-e-scooters

πŸ“πŸš³ "where's the nearest empty dock?"
⚑⚑⚑ "help me get to the nearest e-bike!"
