    As the nation faces assault by ISIS, what sort of person would deliberately weaken the Police Force?

    Clacking noise - Kalkhoff Impulse 2 motor

    My Woosh folder (Gale) is now 3 years old. Battery still fine, Bike still fine. It has stood a lot of abuse, riding along beaches etc., bashed the derailleur mechanism silly on a large pebble, bent it back to shape and it still works as it always did. Cost £540

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Well, if you had been called fascist, racist, xenophobic, thick scum by remainers how would you feel?

    Congratulations Chris Froome

    Personally, I no longer acknowledge Armstrong's 'wins' He didn't do it, he cheated.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    OG You know full well that of the 6 rights that you mention, 5 of them were in place long before the EU I had them back in 1960. I remember Harold Wilson bringing in H+S legislation. Sensible stuff, not the dotty stuff we have now that prevents the kids at Llanelli running onto the rugby pitch...

    Kudos K16 and 15 mph throttle

    I am not too sure about burying cables within the frame. Looks good, but a nightmare if repairs are needed. Bikes have had the Boden cables on view for yonks and we are used to that, so why worry about the electric cables. As I think Mark Twain said, 'What you ain't got, don't need no fixin'

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Flecc, Just look at your post 'Permitted, permitted.' Like most of my fellow countrymen, I have little interest in politics and grew up in a free, sovereign nation. It was only later that the full horror of the European project dawned on us, and we don't want it. If our traitorous politicians...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Tom, Your appreciation of things European is fine, as is your wish to be part of it. But, for me the political control, and the direction of travel were unacceptable. If Euro 2 arises from the ashes of the experiment that I believe is already failing, who knows, maybe I will be a supporter, but...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    As far as I can see, Owen Smith, even if by some fluke he can become leader of the PLP, cannot command the support of huge swathes of traditional Labour voters. Smith will not carry the large number of Corbynites. How many Blairites will survive any reselection process? With the loss of the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    derf, or is it Fred? You are the stereotyping insulting person Brexit voters were and are not, as you say, crass, insulting or uniformed. Why are remainers so bitter? or is it now only a handful of diehards?

    BBC - Blatant Bullshine Company......?

    In those days, National organisations such as the Police, the Government, Courts,BBC, Civil Service, Town Councils, Banks etc. were held to be beyond reproach and staffed by people of impeccable rectitude. We now know better, and despite our illusions being shattered, I think that we are all...

    BBC - Blatant Bullshine Company......?

    I find the Beeb stuffed full of left wing media luvvies. Tom alleges exactly the opposite, but instead of giving examples of political bias, simply contents himself with the Beeb's peculiar view of sporting triumphs. I guess that in reality, they are trying to please both sides. I did hear an...

    Another Boris Johnson consequence

    How on earth did a designer forget about opening windows? It's not as if they are some new revolutionary idea.

    Anyone experience abuse from non ebikers?

    Purely from a Lycra's point of view, surely the more people on bikes, electric or not, the greater chance of better cycle paths etc.?

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Sad to see that the old lefties on this forum will simply not accept the reality ,of the referendum and have to manufacture all sort of spurious reasons that they lost. Truly, they are extremely offensive and bullying towards leavers and will not accept democracy. That tells us a lot about them...

    Bastille Day

    Oldtom, your pathological altruism is getting stupid. You take what you consider the 'high moral ground' and deprecate others. Yet, you offer no solution other than to let the current state of affairs to continue, with people being murdered on a regular basis by a 'religion' that borders on Nazism.
