    E-MTBs for Kids, but not here.

    I can.. :) 1. Disability. 2. Because it's an interesting form of exercise. 3. To keep up with their biker mums and dads. 4. Because biking need not be suffering. 5. To get them out of the house.

    Replacing a motorbike for my commute

    In a word, yes. Get yourself a 'Bikehut' basic suspension seatpost, around 12 quid from halfrauds. Use a nice comfy gel saddle too. Get an mp3 player for your handlebars. Listen to some music on your commute, whilst it inoffensively alerts pedestrians of your presence. Enjoy the ride more. :)

    Now then, now then.. :D Ah, but did every single rider that crashed, die? Perhaps their helmets saved some of them. Just playing devils' advocate. :)

    No, he wouldn't like it there too much Ed. It's heavily policed under UK law. Or the interpretation of such by admins. His post would be removed if, for example, he mentioned the use of a throttle or dongle. Therefore, unlike this place, it's not a forum for free speech. Funnily enough, if...

    Hammer Bikes

    I've noticed some degradation and earlier depletion than I've previously seen with it (20 months now). 2k miles might be optimistic, or hopefully about right. As I've 3 bikes now, I only use this to run the dog off piste locally. Thanks for the info about the forks. I wondered what was going...

    Skidding on leaves

    I found that wet mud and wet wood has the same effect. :D Actually, looking at the path and that bridge, you're right about the 'film of mushed-up leaves'. :eek:
