    Camera broke. :(

    I was out today for my usual Saturday morning cycle with my grandson. My camera decided to drop off my bike and is now defunct. I think I'd best buy a new camera. So, has anyone tried a Sport-Cam HC-03? You can find it here: Sport-Cam Helmet Cameras UK Based Fast Delivery Bullet Camera...

    BEBA UK Survey Results: Executive Summary

    Comparing sales in Europe where they have no throttles to UK where we can have throttles isn't a good comparison. Their larger sales have nothing at all to do with throttles being banned. If the EU made it compulsory for ebikes to HAVE a throttle instead of banning them the sales in Europe would...

    BEBA UK Survey Results: Executive Summary

    What I can't understand is why people who don't want a throttle are so opposed to other people having them. I don't need a throttle but I don't object to others having them.

    Video Tips ?

    I like how you ignored the big no cycling sign and the 3 times you went over the words 'no cycling' in big letters. :) I have one of those cameras somewhere in the house and you've prompted me to buy a mount and try it on my bike. BTW I live way to the North of you and I'm a fairweather...

    Is there any hub drive bike worth paying more than £1700?

    Similar spec bikes from different companies tend not to have huge differences in price. But on a personal basis, I don't mind paying a bit more to buy from a company with a proven good customer support.

    Is there any hub drive bike worth paying more than £1700?

    We all hope we don't need their support no mater how much we pay for bikes but a company with a known 'good' level of support is always worth paying a premium for. It gives you confidence in their product.

    How the Dutch got their cycle paths.

    Here's one from Copenhagen with no sign of mass protests. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtX8qiC_rXE&feature=related It just seems like the people need to want it. In UK we don't or at least, not enough of us do.

    OK, here goes.

    It's a tiny little thing called Veho Muvi. It is only a cheapie. It's mounted to the handlebars by a moubt that came with it and it has 2 velcro straps to hold it on. It isn't very tight, actually it's not tight at all which is probably causing some of the problems.

    OK, here goes.

    The camerea is a cheap muvi thing and can't handle the bike vibrating. I need to look at mounting it on me rather than the bike I guess. The sound from the camera is horendous, even when not moving and in the house there is a lot of noise on the recordings.

    OK, here goes.

    My camera is on the handlebars so you can imagine the shake I've got. Yes youtube did offer to stabilise it and I accepted. I thought I'd see what it came out like. It came out a bit smoother. As to traffic free routes. The cycle path is the start of a big leisure project going on so soon...

    OK, here goes.
