I'd be astonished, since I have no house, no wife and no children! Seriously, it's exactly a police matter, so I'd inform them. I've no objection to you or anyone informing on genuine serious offences against you, but what is going on with this camera campaign is far too often vindictive...

Doing the job of the police is vigilantism by definition. Of course the government and police love you doing their job for them, even encouraging it since it's getting them off the hook. Thats why this situation will never change all the time you and others do it. It's a con on the public...

Agreed. Emphatically yes, haven't got one and never will have one. Agreed. No it's not caused or aroused. It's simply that bicycles are in the way. Just like milk floats used to be. It's a job solely for the police, vigilantism is always wrong. Every effort should be made to compel...

More height can make a big difference. The trip to the recycling centre, which includes a section of major road, carrying the load shown below was amusing. Unable to see me, drivers were passing slowly with huge clearance and rubber-necking to see what on earth it was they were passing!

Correction, I've never claimed different for France and know of their differences from some of their neighbours. Italy likewise. I've always spoken of the main cycling nations of The Netherlands, Denmark and Germany where cycling is on a very much larger scale involving a high proportion of...

When it used to happen I ignored it, however it's all but disappeared where I do my travelling now, road manners are vastly improved, with pedestrian and cyclists generally treated very well. This has nothing to do with cycle lanes (mostly useless) or LTNs. Two things have brought about the...

I don't have to reconsider anything since we are the same people. Our experience is closely matched in every respect, including NCB, except that I now only have the one car, though at one time for a few years I was able to use any out of a fleet of 140 of them! My whole attitude is one of...

I told you my riding and driving history, 70 years cycling, 68 years driving and 54 years motorcycling, all without hurting anyone else or myself. In response you lectured saying my luck will run out one day. If you think a riding and driving record like that is only down to luck, you aren't...

Ah, not the same model. Well you can only try, you may be lucky with the two compatible enough to work, but I very much doubt it will perform as an S pedelec. The Panasonic units the Kalkhoffs used initially all looked identical outside, but their circuit boards had various differences...

There were some changes in the Impulse units over time, so best change the motor unit and handlebar unit as a pair to avoid any incompatibilities. I can't give any other specific advice since I've never changed one. .

Same as Benjahmin says with the connections to the bike, they must be like to like too. If you connect the battery to the bike wrong way round you could seriously damage the bike's electrics. .

Not surprising or odd, it isn't legal to cycle on the pavement. However, how a law is applied can be regulated by the relevant authority, in this case the Home Office. As I've patiently explained, a Home Office Minister of the day prescribed that and it has repeatedly since been confirmed...

There's no chance of that, most Tories know he's a liability and his time is up. So time for tactics, getting rid of him at the most suitable point and no just rushing into it without thinking. That best point is when there's not enough time for a new leader to be seen to fail before the GE...

If Ranis are still able to supply new batteries at that price, given that your usage is quite light, it could well be the best option. Recelling can be a future option if and when Ranis are no longer able to supply. .

The Tories best ploy would be to keep him for one more year, thern dump him, leaving the whole blame on Johnson, while giving the new leader a chance to introduce attractive policies without having to prove they work in the brief time before the GE. Dumping Johnson now means the new leader will...

As Soundwave says, getting the batteries recelled is the easiest solution, and could be cheaper than buying new batteries. There will be services doing that in Germany. .

One bike at least is a Ranis Foldy, a rear hub motor folding e-bike: Information Link .

Like Churchill, Johnson was fit and slim in his earlier decades:

The judge said it was inexplicable, but that simply isn't true. It's clear what happened and it is very common. The driver passed the cyclist and then slowed and turned left across the cyclist's path. It's a failure to realise that the cyclist was still gaining ground, catching up as the...

Indeed they knew and I've already protested about this since I'm one of the cardiac - tachycardia victims of their booster. Prone to tachycardia but with no events for almost a year from 28/1/21 to 16/12 21, receiving their booster provoked the following: 15 tachycardia events between...
