    Switzerland’s best e-bike tour – Route 1291| Switzerland Tourism

    Yes when our children were small and we were on holiday in the French Jura mountains, we twice traveled into Switzerland once to Geneva and another time to Nyon. The trips on the way there were as you would expect rural Switzerland to be meadows and cows with bells, wooden chalets. Although much...

    Puch eMaxi Build

    Love two strokes but can agree with what has been said above if not looked after. Always had Japanese two strokes apart from a KTM moped and an early 1966 Spanish Bultaco which was very agricultural when taken apart compared to the Japanese offerings.

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    Can agree with a lot of that, and even I and some of my contemporaries had to put up with criticism from some others for working/doing too much in their eyes, i.e. getting the job done. Needless to say reaping the benefits now.

    How close

    This happens so often and I'm always amazed how they get away with it, with the many close calls I`ve seen so far. I once pulled into a farm gate way hoping to cycle slowly to let the vehicle behind pass but he stopped blocking me to complain that I should have pulled over earlier. He was...

It was easy to send the data over the internet and receive the bits via cargo flights days later. All good quality...
