I don't think you'd get any useful amount of charge back from doing this. If you have the legs of steel required to do this, you might as well just ride normally on a normal, less heavy bike and get more mileage for your oatmeal.

Ebikes are great for climbing, and I'd be willing to recharge a bit on the flats or downhill if it was reasonably productive. I just don't know how productive they could be.
