Youre not the first person to suggest that, and its not a bad idea just the money is crap, but better than nothing at the same time. I need to put some serious thought into it as like i say a few people ive discussed this with have mentioned it, thanks flecc

Thanks flecc. I was thinking of a vw transporter, big enough to lie down in with the bike in the back too. The problem with that is the height, i was going to at northwick park hosp as you can stay there for 25 a week in a undercover car park but the problem is they have a height restriction...

And ive lost 2 stone, bonus! :)

Blimey nothings a secret anymore is it lol

If i do go ahead with the idea, after a year or so i will be going to a school where im sure theyll let me use a plug socket so shouldnt be an issue after that but its the first year thatll be the hurdle..

How far are you supposed to go on a 17AH battery on a bear and yes im 18st and reckon ill need to do 160 miles a week tops on them. Thanks

Thats a good idea about charging them up in the shop but it does mean ill have to go there daily or every other day which could be a pain in the butt as the days are going to hard enough as it is.

Thanks for your advice but sounds like id still need two batteries so estimate itll nearer 3k where as the whoosh bear inc spare battery is about 1300. I had thought about a gen but agree the noise and smell could be an issue. Depending where im parked i estimate ill do 40 miles a day 3-4-5 days...

Hi tugwell, yes thats right mate and i may leave it again this time yet but it is something i really like to do if i could, completing the knowledge is one thing but to do it on a ebike would be another! It does seem like it could be too much flaffing around, theres so many issues to think of...

Hi, with the help of the other members id pretty much already established to go for the bear as i weigh around 18st

Lol.. I know costa's have sockets dotted around them and theres enough of those around for sure. You can get powerpacks that charge laptops but maybe not necessary afterall. If its chucking it down i can still do runs in the van which isnt the end of the world so if im out of juice which i dont...

I think 2 batteries is the answer even tho one may be enough it just adds that extra bit of security as ill have enough to think about as it is, you know they do powerpacks for phones/laptops to enable you to charge up while on the go, do they do such a thing for bike batteries, if not it could...

Doesnt sound too bad!

How many bars are there to begin with?

Lucky no-one was nightfishing! Lol
