    Maiden voyage

    Hi Neal, something must be different on the kit as opposed this setup as I can only find throttle mode and 5 assist modes, I do imagine that battery will bed in I will get a bit more from it , of course as I get better too the assist can be dropped down and I'll get more distance too.

    Red lined route

    Red routes seemingly only exist where there are numpty councils, kinda like a double double yellow line ...no stopping for any reason at all at any time except buses .. Which always have double the needed stops along such roads for some reason, so kinda nullifies the no stopping idea.

    Red lined route

    Thanks Andy , seems half the route has service roads along side so they could prove useful , and a little bus lane along the way so looking positive

    Red lined route

    That's interesting and might be a sensible idea, thanks. As for training think I'll see how it goes , the few short runs ive done in past week have been OK so guess I'm just going to go for it.

    Red lined route

    Hi Wondering part of my ideal route to commute goes along a red lined road, supposedly this means vehicle's can not stop along this road, except for buses. Is there any reason or rules against traveling along this, its a quite flat road and not too many junctions so I should get a good turn...
