    The FI 2016 world champion.....

    If you are looking for racism you can always find it. Rosberg's nationality is irrelevant. Lewis has been extremely unlucky, without any one of his 4 dnf,s he,d be champion. Lewis is the better driver. Rosberg the deserved champion this year. That's how it goes. The report says little more.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Tom if I were you I,d start practising what I preach and stop calling people bigots. ( you have not identified any justifiable reason for doing so, because there isn,t one. You and I have never met, unlikely to do so, never spoke and hardly communicated on here, yet you feel justified in calling...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Totally agree Flecc, perhaps your comment will be understood by Tom and OG ?( or directed at them ? perhaps it was ?) Tom , the acid test for being part of Human Race is (IMO) being humane. I consider myself as qualifying and hence part of human race.Do you ? Over course of this thread you have...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Tom Perhaps you,d like to explain exactly which part bigoted, which part shamefull ? Flecc No it does not. I,m entitled to any opinion I wish without justification. Its called freedom. I don't want to join local golf club either.. Putin could be asking us "Why don't you want to be part of our...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Good post Derf. Agree with most of it. Except..much as Trump ( and Farage Cameron/ Blair) seems incapable of being a humane President / politician we know for a fact Junkers isn't. ( look at his history as Priminister of Luxembourg) yet he ends up one of most powerful men in world and probably...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Think Flecc has hit nail on head, in that his assumption for EU to be successful it must become a single nation. Unfortunately there is no way on earth that will ever happen and its certainly not what folk thought( accepted big assumption) when we had the first joke vote ( referendum) AFTER...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Dont agree with last 2 posts...but good posts none the less. Flecc..Go and ask folk in Lithuania about them.loosing a whole generation of working people, firms unable to invest , even if they wished. The whole process is an experiment. Nobody really knows its outcome. As much as your...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    OG If it was an attempt at humour...apologies. On topic for Tom.. Can one of you remain experts please explain why the free market is so emphatically linked to free movement. For both rich and poor countries its a flawed principal. ( look what's happening to poorer parts of EU, their working...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    OG You mix up the meaning of the word temperance with temperance movement. Temperance can be seen as the ability to show restraint in the face of offensive argument. Many have shown lots in their responses on here, normally post your posts.

    Hub motor conversion

    Yep almost...but do you think the motor shaft would absorb the pushing forces from propellor ? A hub motor has to take side ways forces ( when bike cornering) The motors from scooters and crank drives I don't think will have a thrust plate built in ?? ( a drill must otherwise you couldn't push...

    Hub motor conversion

    I mount motors in a aluminium tube ( approx 1cm larger than motor) concentrically, in which are welded bulkheads contained ip68 glands for control cables. Switches are magnetic. Simply on or off. Units have to be disassembled to alter power. ( which was another question)there are no holes to...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Thanks..it took a while...besides I don't want to shut anything down. Perhaps a little temperance from a some would be productive. This thread is only one I,ve read and its not particularly nice or a good image for your sport.( Dont even own a pushbike) But hey , the technology is wondrous. I,ll...

    Hub motor conversion

    Or perhaps somebody knows of a 1000w brushless cordless drill...which would be perfect .( most cordless drills are under 400w..well under in some cases) The one I,ve built is great for pool use but underpowered in sea)

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Thanks Flecc..read rule 3. Seems more ignore it than comply..or comprehend it how they see fit...to do exactly what rule 3 asks people not to..ie push their own agenda..??? ie slate Brexiters, promote remain..( accepted not you but certainly majority on this thread) You shouldn't justify that...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    All due respect ..being a new member etc etc...I,ve just agreed to abide by Forum rules. Perhaps rule 3 should be scrapped? Certainly not starting to row , justify or repeat...its not why I joined forum. ???

    Hub motor conversion

    Thanks Alan. Wanting to keep all drive inline...so scooter is more torpedo shape..Hub motor would be right diameter, to bolt to housing radially and some have cyclic gears to get rpm where I want them...Running a propeller so cant run direct drive. Built one already with a cordless drill motor (...
