    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Indeed, he was the Tories model Crown Prosecutor, hence the Knighthood for being such a good obedient Tory. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I think he's made a very bad mistake in first continuing to support the candidate, but then changing his mind and withdrawing it. He should have instantly withdrawn support the moment the story broke. It's an anti-semite opening for the Tories and they'll sure as hell use it in the GE run up...

    Assistance cut out

    That is normal and by design on most upright trikes. That's because they tend to be somewhat unstable in some circumstance and large numbers never get used to their steering characteristics, so they are rarely specified for 15.5mph assistance. Some are even slower when the maker sells them...

    Help! Neighbor's Cats Spoiling My Garden!

    I solved that problem with all the neighbours cats long ago, they are all so terrified of me that they flee the moment they glimpse my presence. That was achieved with each one simply by opening the back door and running agressively directly at them with thundering footsteps, pursuing them to...

    It doesn't matter if there were any at all, when they are so few as to be invisible throughout 18 years. That is more than enough factual data to show it is not our problem. As above, no data is needed for this statement: "The current problem is nothing whatsoever to do with legal pedelecs...

    True, but the global warming threat for most is further away than their kids lives. Personally I take no notice of any climate or pollution change data. The evidence for me exists in the accelerating rate of species and population decline of small arthropods. It's existing at an ever more...

    True they get limited or no help, but clearly they have the idea that a pedelecs/EAPC forum is where to come for it. And it's mainly the wrong use of that e-bike name for pedelecs that is to blame for that. We could achieve more if the authorities co-operate in the manner I've indicated by...

    This one was delivered to me after travelling half way round the world in the loving care of DHL: As you see the case shattered by an impact. After I repaired it as below with silver duct tape, it worked perfectly for the rest of its life:

    Not the manipulation you think from your very short time in here. In the earlier days when our lithium batteries really were at risk from the type of cells commonly used, we discussed this extensively in this, the only suitable forum, and the trade and industry did too. The whole matter was...

    At their stage of life they don't care since it will never affect them personally. That's the reality in our world, the ruthless run the show while those who really care are sidelined into being their critics. .

    Professor Zharkova claims 97% accuracy for the model which dovetails with previous mini ice ages, including the Maunder Minimum period from 1645 to 1715 when frost fairs were held on the frozen Thames. But she cautions that her mathematical research cannot be used as proof that there will be a...

    I haven't done that. I'm challenging him setting up such a thread as a sticky when he doesn't even know the basics of the problem and that it doesn't apply to legal EAPCs. But when I try to educate, you aggressively reply by disagreeing with the facts. Nothing is being learnt by any of the...

    I would never have bought a Range Rover at any time in its useless history. A Toyota Land Cruiser is a much better buy if one is into such monster wagons (I'm not). Even the Range Rover owners had a joke about themselves, told to me by an owner (Ralph, pronounced in the affected way as Rafe)...

    He actually posted 22 times about pedelecs in the Electric Bike general discussion forum, also owned a Brompton with a Sparticle kit and a moped and had previously owned another pedelec. But being politically far left, the political aspects of the Brexit discussions appealed. As for being...

    I don't think there were many AI bots then, but certainly large numbers actually actively left then, their posts shown now as "NoLongerRegistered with a number" and "Account closed". There were actually two Brexit threads, both started by me. The first one was titled "Leaving the EU" and ran...

    It's still young, just had its fourth MOT at six years so will almost certainly outlast me. It's battery still shows full capacity and the range little diminished and well in excess of my needs as I get older. And like almost all e-cars it is garage kept on private land where it's chargers...

    In the interests of accuracy this reply is addressed to all in the forum, not just you. The OP has obviously assumed that we in the EAPC community are a part of the fires problem when we clearly are not. That is the inaccuracy I speak of that only adds to all the media hysteria, which is very...
