Thanks very much for the narrative & photos so we can all vicariously follow your adventures.

It pays to wait. I didn't proceed with my purchase on the website so got an email with a 10% discount code REDSHIFT10 to bring the price down to a very tempting (NOT) £310.49.

The price that I found for the complete ShockStop System was a mere £344.99.

On a recent visit to CanadaI saw a lot of eBikes & eScooters. The rules are that they are limited to 500 W output & cannot travel faster than 32 km/h (20 mph) on motor power alone on level ground. Throttles are permitted but they must be able to be propelled by pedal power alone. Now that the...

In France you don't need a driving licence to drive a Citroën Ami & it costs as little as €900 down (which the government will reimburse you) then 47 monthly payments of €91.67. https://www.citroen.fr/ami

It's a limit not a target.

Squash used to be the thing that middle managers indulged in to compete with one another. Apparently they all go cycling nowadays.

This is also true of hub drive eBikes with a torque sensor instead of a cadence sensor. My Wisper 705 Torque "feels much more natural, like a real bike".

Your bank details are on every cheque.

I bought a Woosh Big Bear with no keys & posted a thread here https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/lost-keys-what-can-be-done.38980/ As suggested I bought a set of juggler keys for £14.95 & unlocked it within 30 seconds. I then dismantled the lock & removed the tumblers so that could open it...

Thank you so much for the travelogue & photos. I can't even aspire to your daily average for one day let alone 33 days on the trot so am really impressed with your level of fitness & determination.

Your acknowledge that for most of Europe cycling is commonly the lycra crowd just as it is in the UK. Isn't it more likely that the reason cycling is so popular in the Netherlands & Denmark less to do with slower economic recovery post war & more to do with the fact that these are the flattest...

I moved to France in 1997 & something that I was immediately aware of was that drivers were far more considerate of cyclists giving them a wide margin when overtaking & exhibiting no impatience when stuck behind them. I put it down to the Tour de France. In contrast to @flecc's claim regarding...

My wife is learning to drive. We were out practising yesterday & on a narrow two lane country road came up behind three lycra louts who started with two abreast at the front with insufficient space between them & the tail ender to overtake hime when the view ahead was clear. Then the front two...

If you have only had the bike since March it must still be under warranty. Take it back to where you bought it & get them to fix it.

As everyone's idea of what is reasonable is not definable and that it would not be possible to enforce a close passing limit on motorists overtaking cyclists, the only logical solution to problem overtaking would be a complete ban. See how ridiculous your proposition sounds in other...

Of course he isn't innocent the white van is parked on a traffic island partly across the dropped section for wheelchair access.

It's an unfair world, those rich enough to afford a Tesla get subsidised so much by taxpayers.Each of those Tesla company lease cars you see driven by middle managers & sales reps is receiving an effective subsidy of £4,000-£5,000 per year. Tesla even boast about how little tax businesses...

The police have 14 days to deliver a notice to the registered keeper requesting details of the driver. Although many cars only ever have one driver it is not thought reasonable to ask someone to remember who was driving a particular car more than a fortnight ago. In this case there is a prima...

You might want to check that last sentence. The population of the Netherlands is about 17.6 million.
